00:00:00.920 --> 00:00:01.639
Are you ready?

2
00:00:01.840 --> 00:00:03.279
Yeah, Okay, let's do it.

3
00:00:03.319 --> 00:00:07.839
Ill Martinez Live a program about current events, our culture,

4
00:00:08.199 --> 00:00:11.160
our values, our politics, and our future.

5
00:00:11.480 --> 00:00:15.679
And now Bill Martinez, Good.

6
00:00:15.560 --> 00:00:17.960
Morning and welcome six minutes after the top of the hour.

7
00:00:18.039 --> 00:00:21.960
Right now, I'm Bill Martinez. He is John O'Connor. He

8
00:00:22.199 --> 00:00:25.079
is the legal analyst, author of Postgate, How the Washington

9
00:00:25.079 --> 00:00:28.839
Post betrayed Deep Throat, covered up Watergate, and began today's

10
00:00:28.879 --> 00:00:31.320
partisan advocacy journalism.

11
00:00:31.640 --> 00:00:34.119
John, Welcome back. Is always good to have you with us.

12
00:00:34.520 --> 00:00:38.399
What's your bill, Hey, lots to catch up on. Let's

13
00:00:38.439 --> 00:00:43.399
start with the Epstein grand jury files. The judge denies

14
00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:48.920
the Department of Justice requests to unseal those grand jury files.

15
00:00:49.159 --> 00:00:50.679
I thought that was a bit of a hope and

16
00:00:50.719 --> 00:00:52.280
a prayer. Anyway, what did you think.

17
00:00:53.759 --> 00:00:56.119
I thought it was just done for public consumption to

18
00:00:56.159 --> 00:00:59.560
make it look like the Trump administration was trying to

19
00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:04.879
do something thing. It was completely completely a hail Mary.

20
00:01:05.359 --> 00:01:08.920
They weren't gonna the judge isn't gonna release it, so

21
00:01:08.920 --> 00:01:11.719
they knew that, and it makes the public think that

22
00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:12.439
Trump's trying.

23
00:01:13.840 --> 00:01:18.959
So, I mean, we had a situation where a Trump representative,

24
00:01:20.040 --> 00:01:23.560
one of the top men man in the Department of Justice,

25
00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:28.120
meets with Elaine Maxwell, and then she gets moved to

26
00:01:29.079 --> 00:01:31.239
Club Club Fed I guess or something.

27
00:01:31.319 --> 00:01:34.680
Right, Yes, that's a good sign. It means that.

28
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:39.120
You know that there's at least some chance that she'll cooperate.

29
00:01:39.200 --> 00:01:44.359
That's obviously she has done something to win the Club

30
00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:46.359
Fed assignment.

31
00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:54.239
Well, and also you've got James Comer affecting a subpoena

32
00:01:54.519 --> 00:01:55.799
for the Clintons.

33
00:01:57.159 --> 00:01:58.200
Well, that's right now.

34
00:01:58.840 --> 00:02:02.719
I don't know that that's to go anywhere, but because

35
00:02:02.920 --> 00:02:04.760
you know, there are all sorts of ways to shove

36
00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:10.639
shove off of that testimonial. But the question is is

37
00:02:10.680 --> 00:02:14.560
what is Julane Maxwell doing that has given her that

38
00:02:14.639 --> 00:02:17.479
little favor? And it could well be that what they're

39
00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:21.520
doing is they're getting her cooperation by having her tell

40
00:02:21.560 --> 00:02:25.240
her lawyer things and then the lawyer relays them to

41
00:02:25.400 --> 00:02:28.240
the government so that they'll get it may get a

42
00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:29.879
sense of what she's going to say.

43
00:02:30.919 --> 00:02:32.439
Well, and she was pretty emphatic.

44
00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:36.000
I mean, there was no compromise or misunderstanding whatsoever that

45
00:02:37.039 --> 00:02:42.439
in terms of the death of Epstein that she believes

46
00:02:42.439 --> 00:02:43.759
that he was murdered.

47
00:02:45.400 --> 00:02:46.400
Oh that's interesting.

48
00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:49.680
Yeah, yeah, Well she would know, and I think she

49
00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:51.280
would know if this is a guy that's going to

50
00:02:51.360 --> 00:02:56.599
commit suicide. And I tend to think he's not a

51
00:02:56.639 --> 00:03:00.240
suicidal guy. That's my thought that he he was a

52
00:03:00.280 --> 00:03:03.039
clever guy. You know, he could probably he knew enough

53
00:03:03.080 --> 00:03:05.599
to know that he could at least live in peace

54
00:03:05.639 --> 00:03:07.080
in the club, fed someplace.

55
00:03:07.560 --> 00:03:09.680
And he is a good.

56
00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:13.000
Candidate to remove from the general population because he's obviously

57
00:03:13.039 --> 00:03:16.960
a figure that people would end up you know, assaulting

58
00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:17.639
and so forth.

59
00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:20.599
So you know, he he could live his life out

60
00:03:20.639 --> 00:03:22.319
some way. And there we are.

61
00:03:22.680 --> 00:03:24.599
It's kind of interesting, John, don't you think that here's

62
00:03:24.639 --> 00:03:29.280
a man who thought he was, you know, pretty well

63
00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:32.560
protected with all the information that he had on.

64
00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:35.400
These key influencers. He led a charmed life.

65
00:03:35.439 --> 00:03:39.400
He was able to escape, you know, a serious offense

66
00:03:39.439 --> 00:03:43.560
in Florida, and he's thinking, okay, you know, I'll just

67
00:03:44.159 --> 00:03:47.840
navigate through this as well as I've done before. But

68
00:03:48.479 --> 00:03:50.840
suddenly he becomes the man that knows too much.

69
00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:56.319
Right, that's right. It's an intriguing thing. I'll tell you this.

70
00:03:56.520 --> 00:04:01.360
It was clear that the to me that the guards

71
00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:04.199
were bribed, that there was an inside deal there. Now,

72
00:04:04.240 --> 00:04:08.560
whether they're being bribed to allow him to commit suicide

73
00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:11.199
or being bribed to allow somebody to kill him is

74
00:04:11.240 --> 00:04:11.800
the question.

75
00:04:12.280 --> 00:04:13.439
But they were clearly bribed.

76
00:04:13.439 --> 00:04:17.480
I mean, it's just ridiculous that in a situation like

77
00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:21.279
that that and you know, no one would be watching.

78
00:04:21.959 --> 00:04:24.079
Well, and where's the accountability?

79
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:25.720
I mean that that seems to be the word of

80
00:04:25.759 --> 00:04:30.000
the day constantly, that you know, comes into effect on

81
00:04:30.120 --> 00:04:35.240
all these issues, whether it's Epstein, whether it's uh, you know,

82
00:04:35.399 --> 00:04:37.560
thousands of emails from Hillary Clinton.

83
00:04:38.399 --> 00:04:38.600
You know.

84
00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:42.199
Of course, then we've got the the release of the

85
00:04:42.279 --> 00:04:47.560
do O j FBI burned bag information that really, boy,

86
00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:51.879
I'll tell you that really implicates even Barack Obama and

87
00:04:51.920 --> 00:04:54.920
his uh, you know, his key players on this whole

88
00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:57.000
situation of Russia Gate.

89
00:04:58.399 --> 00:05:02.199
What I would say is the in case is not

90
00:05:02.399 --> 00:05:07.879
unusual to me. Whenever you're dealing with sexual misconduct, that

91
00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:13.399
is something that is necessarily kept under the rug. And

92
00:05:13.560 --> 00:05:16.360
I think there's probably an awful lot of abuse throughout

93
00:05:16.360 --> 00:05:18.759
this country that's occurring right now that's not going to

94
00:05:18.759 --> 00:05:20.279
get prosecuted or discovered.

95
00:05:20.319 --> 00:05:22.000
I hate to say that, but that's just the way

96
00:05:22.000 --> 00:05:23.279
of the world. Right.

97
00:05:23.319 --> 00:05:27.240
But when you get into this stuff that deals with

98
00:05:27.279 --> 00:05:30.759
the high levels of government, where we really, really where

99
00:05:30.759 --> 00:05:34.319
you have paper trails on what people do. To me,

100
00:05:34.439 --> 00:05:37.920
it's very disturbing that there hasn't been anything done on

101
00:05:37.959 --> 00:05:39.360
this whole Russia Gate hoax.

102
00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:40.759
It's there, It's there.

103
00:05:40.560 --> 00:05:43.959
In black and white now and I think, finally, nine

104
00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:46.000
years after the fact, we're getting to this.

105
00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:48.920
Will John compare this to Watergate?

106
00:05:49.800 --> 00:05:54.279
Oh, not even a comparison. Watergate was penny Anny chicken

107
00:05:54.319 --> 00:05:57.240
feed stuff. And the people that were alleged to be

108
00:05:57.279 --> 00:06:00.399
the wrongdoers, the Nixon Noble Office. They had no clue.

109
00:06:00.920 --> 00:06:03.879
The Washington Post, the media knew more about what had

110
00:06:03.920 --> 00:06:09.519
happened than did the Oval Office. And remember the Oval

111
00:06:09.560 --> 00:06:14.240
Office is being charged with cover up. Nixon and all

112
00:06:14.279 --> 00:06:16.639
his aides were supposedly covering this up.

113
00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:21.319
What were they covering up? Well, they didn't know. They

114
00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:21.920
did not know.

115
00:06:22.399 --> 00:06:25.720
They thought maybe than John Mitchell, who was no longer

116
00:06:25.759 --> 00:06:28.160
in the Oval Office he was off running the campaign,

117
00:06:28.240 --> 00:06:31.560
that maybe he had done this. And it was maybe

118
00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:34.240
a year after the burglary where they finally figured out,

119
00:06:34.279 --> 00:06:37.319
you know something, we believe Mitchell and Mitchell didn't have

120
00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:39.839
anything to do with this. Who did do this? So

121
00:06:40.319 --> 00:06:44.600
they never knew, so but the press blew it up

122
00:06:44.639 --> 00:06:51.800
to be this, oh, this tremendously saturnine conspiracy, and it

123
00:06:51.879 --> 00:06:56.319
really wasn't. The real conspiracy in Watergate was the conspiracy

124
00:06:56.439 --> 00:07:00.319
of the CIA, who had infiltrated and had been behind this.

125
00:07:00.959 --> 00:07:05.319
And number two, the Washington Post protecting the CIA by

126
00:07:06.279 --> 00:07:08.800
land based in the White House. So it was it

127
00:07:08.839 --> 00:07:12.199
was a journalistically impelled scandal, and it was journalistic fraud.

128
00:07:12.759 --> 00:07:14.279
And let's let me just say that.

129
00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:19.759
Whereas and the common thread here is that rush Gate

130
00:07:19.879 --> 00:07:23.519
could not have gone forward without the complicity of the media.

131
00:07:23.959 --> 00:07:28.600
Right well, and all the players, the intelligence community all

132
00:07:28.680 --> 00:07:31.839
chimed in again just like you know, you follow the

133
00:07:31.879 --> 00:07:36.920
outline of what the CIA was able to do in

134
00:07:37.360 --> 00:07:41.680
cooperation with the mainstream media, and what they were able

135
00:07:41.720 --> 00:07:44.240
to do to Richard Nixon. I mean here here, Richard

136
00:07:44.319 --> 00:07:50.079
Nixon wins, I mean not that long ago with a landslide,

137
00:07:50.360 --> 00:07:54.199
I mean all but one state he carries and and

138
00:07:54.240 --> 00:07:56.600
they get rid of him like nothing.

139
00:07:58.279 --> 00:07:59.839
Well, that's right, that's right.

140
00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:03.399
And that's because they started this drum beat of publicity

141
00:08:04.319 --> 00:08:09.639
and the Republicans were, you know again, just hapless folks

142
00:08:09.680 --> 00:08:12.319
who didn't want to do any any wrong. And it

143
00:08:12.480 --> 00:08:17.079
started a whole process for the next how long it's

144
00:08:17.199 --> 00:08:20.759
been fifty years. The Republicans are just sort of Patsy's

145
00:08:21.160 --> 00:08:23.120
and they try to be nice and play along. And

146
00:08:23.319 --> 00:08:25.800
there are a lot of cynical people that know they

147
00:08:25.800 --> 00:08:29.199
can gin up scandals, and they know they have the

148
00:08:29.319 --> 00:08:32.320
media behind them, and that's always been a big deal.

149
00:08:32.639 --> 00:08:36.399
How do we get the media behind us? And no

150
00:08:36.519 --> 00:08:40.960
Republicans had ever figured it out. Trump actually figured it

151
00:08:40.960 --> 00:08:44.399
out by saying, I'm calling it to their face. I'm

152
00:08:44.399 --> 00:08:49.840
not gonna play this game anymore. John McCain thought, Oh,

153
00:08:49.879 --> 00:08:53.080
if I'm a straight talking, honest guy, they're going to

154
00:08:53.159 --> 00:08:55.399
go with me when it comes to And then, of course,

155
00:08:55.440 --> 00:08:59.559
as soon as McCain gets nominated, The Washington the New

156
00:08:59.639 --> 00:09:02.240
York Times write some trash about how he must be

157
00:09:02.559 --> 00:09:04.759
although we don't know he must be having an affair

158
00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:08.480
with a young lobbyist right whether there's absolutely not a

159
00:09:08.559 --> 00:09:11.840
shred ap proof, and yet that's a front page story

160
00:09:11.879 --> 00:09:12.799
in the New York Times.

161
00:09:13.039 --> 00:09:14.679
So we got John, we got to go to quick break.

162
00:09:14.679 --> 00:09:16.000
We'll pick it up on the other side. More from

163
00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:17.240
John O'Connor after.

164
00:09:17.039 --> 00:09:21.639
This stay with us, constipation with belly pain, that keeps

165
00:09:21.679 --> 00:09:27.159
coming back, and back and back. If your symptoms keep

166
00:09:27.159 --> 00:09:29.759
coming back, talk to your doctor. It could be irritable

167
00:09:29.759 --> 00:09:33.440
bell syndrome with constipation or IBSC. Linzes could help you

168
00:09:33.480 --> 00:09:36.440
get ahead of it. Linz Es lnaclotite is a prescription

169
00:09:36.559 --> 00:09:39.480
medicine that treats IBSC in adults. It's not a laxative.

170
00:09:39.600 --> 00:09:41.480
It's a once daily pill that helps you get ahead

Hey, we're back with you nineteen minutes after the top

252
00:13:57.360 --> 00:14:00.559
of the hour. I'm Bill Martinez. He's John O'Connor, analyst,

253
00:14:00.559 --> 00:14:03.159
author of Closegate John before the Break where you were

254
00:14:03.159 --> 00:14:06.200
just talking about John McCain and how he deluded himself

255
00:14:06.200 --> 00:14:10.519
into thinking somehow he could side with the legacy media.

256
00:14:10.679 --> 00:14:13.000
Boy, they the knives came out quick, didn't they.

257
00:14:14.080 --> 00:14:16.960
As as soon as he's up there in the batter's box,

258
00:14:17.000 --> 00:14:20.840
they come after him. So you don't get any credit

259
00:14:20.879 --> 00:14:23.879
with these guys by trying to be a nice guy.

260
00:14:24.639 --> 00:14:27.120
The fact is is that Trump did it the right way,

261
00:14:27.159 --> 00:14:30.120
I think, And that's one of the reasons Trump has

262
00:14:30.200 --> 00:14:33.159
a steady corps of followers is because he goes right

263
00:14:33.200 --> 00:14:36.480
at the media and he calls him fake news. And

264
00:14:36.559 --> 00:14:39.440
actually the word fake news is something that the media

265
00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:45.519
had started using to characterize conservatives who made things up supposedly,

266
00:14:46.039 --> 00:14:49.240
and he came right back at him, and I think

267
00:14:49.480 --> 00:14:51.840
they've never been the same since Trump has come in

268
00:14:51.960 --> 00:14:55.759
because people say, yeah, you know, the guy's right, the

269
00:14:55.799 --> 00:14:58.679
guy's right, this is fake news. And you guys have

270
00:14:58.759 --> 00:15:01.840
got to get straight here, because we cannot have a

271
00:15:01.960 --> 00:15:06.960
country and a democracy where the people are given false,

272
00:15:07.039 --> 00:15:10.840
knowingly false information on a daily basis. You cannot have that.

273
00:15:10.919 --> 00:15:13.679
The foundation they talk to us all the time about

274
00:15:13.720 --> 00:15:16.720
the foundation of a democracy is a free press.

275
00:15:16.840 --> 00:15:18.799
Yes, democracy does die.

276
00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:21.919
In darkness, as the Post says every day, right, but

277
00:15:22.000 --> 00:15:26.679
if you guys are causing the darkness, that's a real issue, right.

278
00:15:27.200 --> 00:15:27.480
Well.

279
00:15:27.559 --> 00:15:30.799
And the thing is is that here you've got the

280
00:15:30.840 --> 00:15:34.120
partisan journalists that are out in the wilderness with the

281
00:15:34.159 --> 00:15:38.600
Democrats like going in circles. You know, they're just out

282
00:15:38.600 --> 00:15:41.159
in the desert going in circles right now. They can't

283
00:15:41.159 --> 00:15:44.519
seem to figure this out because they just don't have

284
00:15:44.600 --> 00:15:47.840
the conscience and the moral depth to be able to

285
00:15:47.840 --> 00:15:50.120
come back and say, hey, you know what we messed up?

286
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:50.919
You know.

287
00:15:51.279 --> 00:15:53.919
And I believe that if they were upfront with the

288
00:15:53.960 --> 00:15:58.799
American people and admitting to what they did and professing,

289
00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:05.240
you know, some sort of rehabilitation, then they might be

290
00:16:05.320 --> 00:16:08.320
on the road to come back. But until then, I mean,

291
00:16:08.320 --> 00:16:12.200
thank god for you know, podcast and independent journalists that

292
00:16:12.240 --> 00:16:15.759
are now out there in record numbers. John Otherwise we

293
00:16:16.039 --> 00:16:17.320
you know a lot of this stuff that have been

294
00:16:17.360 --> 00:16:19.159
covered up. I mean, even like right now we're just

295
00:16:19.159 --> 00:16:22.679
talking to somebody else. Could you imagine if Kamala Harris

296
00:16:22.720 --> 00:16:28.039
would have been elected president where we'd be right now.

297
00:16:26.840 --> 00:16:29.840
If you had podcasts, if you didn't have independent podcasts

298
00:16:29.840 --> 00:16:33.720
and independent journalists as we do now in the internet days,

299
00:16:34.879 --> 00:16:37.679
Kamala Harris would be our president. This whole thing, even

300
00:16:37.840 --> 00:16:43.360
with this phony, all the woke progressive stuff that's so silly,

301
00:16:43.559 --> 00:16:47.960
she still would have been elected. That's what bothers and

302
00:16:49.559 --> 00:16:53.679
so yes, to a certain extent, the Democratic Party's exposed.

303
00:16:53.679 --> 00:16:56.919
They've got a terrible set of ideas and so forth.

304
00:16:57.320 --> 00:16:59.799
But they were led that way by the media that

305
00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:03.919
always sold so everybody buys it, and they're like little lemmings. Oh,

306
00:17:04.359 --> 00:17:07.799
we're all doing DEI now, Oh, let's all bow down

307
00:17:07.839 --> 00:17:11.920
to DEI principles. Oh we're into transgenderism. Let's all bow

308
00:17:12.039 --> 00:17:15.079
down and say that six foot eight men should be

309
00:17:15.119 --> 00:17:21.359
in women's sports. It's just silly, But they're being protected

310
00:17:21.400 --> 00:17:25.079
by the media. If the media had been more honest

311
00:17:25.160 --> 00:17:29.160
and straightforward and two sided, the Democrats would not be

312
00:17:29.200 --> 00:17:33.000
in this problem. They would have been much more moderate,

313
00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:35.839
they would have been much more Bill Clinton like, and

314
00:17:35.880 --> 00:17:40.200
they would have been electable. So they've got to start

315
00:17:40.240 --> 00:17:43.960
thinking about the new media really is what they do

316
00:17:44.079 --> 00:17:48.160
that they cannot get away with this stuff anymore. And

317
00:17:49.000 --> 00:17:52.119
I think also the media itself, the old media, the

318
00:17:52.200 --> 00:17:56.000
legacy media, realizes it just cannot go along the same way.

319
00:17:56.039 --> 00:17:59.240
It just cannot be. They can't be part of the

320
00:17:59.319 --> 00:18:02.480
lemming group. It's marching to the sea exactly.

321
00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:05.839
Well, we're in interesting times right now, John, where the

322
00:18:05.880 --> 00:18:08.240
veil is being pulled back. You know, I keep saying

323
00:18:08.240 --> 00:18:13.519
that Donald Trump is ap apocalyptic type character here because

324
00:18:13.559 --> 00:18:16.279
he's pulling back the shroud at every turn. I mean,

325
00:18:16.319 --> 00:18:19.440
you know, we're now seeing more information as we mentioned

326
00:18:19.480 --> 00:18:24.200
earlier regarding Russia Gate, all these things that Trump is

327
00:18:24.240 --> 00:18:29.000
going after is just common sensical. And the Democrats find

328
00:18:29.039 --> 00:18:32.599
themselves and the opposite. I mean, here you get eighty

329
00:18:32.640 --> 00:18:35.519
twenty issues, ninety ten issues, and you can count on

330
00:18:35.559 --> 00:18:37.720
the Democrats to go after the ten percent.

331
00:18:38.079 --> 00:18:39.960
You know, they're on the ten percent side.

332
00:18:40.119 --> 00:18:43.880
There's no adjustment and reasonableness to even come to the

333
00:18:44.440 --> 00:18:45.960
and moderate their thinking.

334
00:18:46.279 --> 00:18:47.680
They just they hate Trump.

335
00:18:47.960 --> 00:18:51.400
It's like they've reduced themselves to hating Trump and hating

336
00:18:51.440 --> 00:18:53.880
America and Americans.

337
00:18:54.839 --> 00:18:57.359
That's right. It's a strange combination with Trump.

338
00:18:57.359 --> 00:18:59.640
I mean, you've got an odd character, really in a

339
00:18:59.680 --> 00:19:02.319
story figure, whatever you say about whether you like him

340
00:19:02.359 --> 00:19:05.799
or hate him, he has a world historical figure and

341
00:19:06.319 --> 00:19:10.319
he's all about common sense. But then in expressing it

342
00:19:10.400 --> 00:19:17.279
and in carrying it out, he just has no holds barred.

343
00:19:16.440 --> 00:19:21.480
He uses the media and he expresses all this common

344
00:19:21.559 --> 00:19:24.799
sense in a very much in your face way, in

345
00:19:24.880 --> 00:19:30.640
a very New Yorky here's what I'm saying, blunt, brash way,

346
00:19:31.079 --> 00:19:36.599
And that combination drives the lefties nuts. That's why they

347
00:19:36.640 --> 00:19:39.920
hate Trump so much, because he is coming right at

348
00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:42.759
him and not holding back and not being like a

349
00:19:42.880 --> 00:19:49.000
typical lockjaw country club Republican who's afraid to say anything nasty, which.

350
00:19:48.799 --> 00:19:51.599
We've always had. And now he's doing that.

351
00:19:51.720 --> 00:19:55.440
He's taking common sense and putting it right in their faces.

352
00:19:56.519 --> 00:19:57.440
And of course they hate them.

353
00:19:58.000 --> 00:20:01.319
And of course you never hear anybody you pick up

354
00:20:01.319 --> 00:20:03.720
The New York Times, I still subscribe to the Times,

355
00:20:04.359 --> 00:20:07.559
But I picked up the Times opinion piece, opinion section,

356
00:20:08.559 --> 00:20:11.400
and it's the same thing. You don't find any ideas there.

357
00:20:11.440 --> 00:20:15.839
All you find is negative stories about Trump or what

358
00:20:15.960 --> 00:20:20.000
is happening in this country. Everything in there is just, oh,

359
00:20:20.400 --> 00:20:24.400
this is terrible. And if the news is printed about

360
00:20:24.440 --> 00:20:29.480
an event, it stated in the most negative way possible,

361
00:20:30.640 --> 00:20:31.160
you know, so.

362
00:20:32.680 --> 00:20:33.119
You know it.

363
00:20:35.200 --> 00:20:35.319
Is.

364
00:20:36.920 --> 00:20:40.240
Trump really explains why these people hate him so much.

365
00:20:40.559 --> 00:20:42.640
They hate him because he's put in common sense right

366
00:20:42.680 --> 00:20:44.279
in their face and what are they doing about it?

367
00:20:44.680 --> 00:20:47.880
So it's a formula that works. And listen, there are

368
00:20:47.880 --> 00:20:50.519
a lot of and the reason it's so resonant with

369
00:20:50.720 --> 00:20:54.480
men is you get a guy out there that's an

370
00:20:54.480 --> 00:20:58.000
electrician or plumber. He didn't care what people are going

371
00:20:58.079 --> 00:21:00.759
to say about whether he's right or wrong, going to say, look, no,

372
00:21:00.920 --> 00:21:04.279
this is the way I think he doesn't lose a

373
00:21:04.319 --> 00:21:07.519
plumbing job because of those political views. Yes, you know,

374
00:21:07.640 --> 00:21:11.000
people like me can people like me can lose clients

375
00:21:11.039 --> 00:21:13.759
because we're on the wrong side of politics. That doesn't happen.

376
00:21:14.319 --> 00:21:17.799
And that's why the men are leading the charge on

377
00:21:17.839 --> 00:21:19.160
this common sense stuff.

378
00:21:19.799 --> 00:21:22.519
Right. Well, look what he's done to DC.

379
00:21:22.720 --> 00:21:26.720
He announced today we're going to clean up DC, you know,

380
00:21:27.119 --> 00:21:31.160
having people accosted elected officials. I mean, it was just

381
00:21:31.200 --> 00:21:34.200
such a shame that this young kid, nineteen year old

382
00:21:34.480 --> 00:21:37.559
that was there on the Doge project and you know

383
00:21:37.559 --> 00:21:40.640
it almost got beat to death. And so Trump is saying,

384
00:21:40.640 --> 00:21:43.880
look it, I'm ready to deploy one thousand National Guard troops.

385
00:21:44.079 --> 00:21:47.960
And unlike what happened in January sixth, Muriel Bowser is saying, hey,

386
00:21:48.000 --> 00:21:49.720
look at we're on the same team.

387
00:21:49.799 --> 00:21:53.279
Let's clean Let's clean this, you know, this city up.

388
00:21:54.720 --> 00:21:54.960
Yeah.

389
00:21:55.000 --> 00:21:58.920
Here, they're so worried about the January sixth stuff, and

390
00:21:58.960 --> 00:22:03.000
they're still right as Trump was getting elected the second time,

391
00:22:03.359 --> 00:22:07.680
they're still chasing January sixth people. If you came within

392
00:22:08.319 --> 00:22:10.559
you know, half a mile of the Capitol, they would

393
00:22:10.599 --> 00:22:14.160
get your phone records and go after you and so forth.

394
00:22:14.279 --> 00:22:15.039
They're big on that.

395
00:22:15.160 --> 00:22:18.599
But all the people who have been carjacked and assaulted

396
00:22:18.640 --> 00:22:20.119
on all that, oh no, they're not going to worry

397
00:22:20.119 --> 00:22:23.759
about that. And so I think it's a good thing

398
00:22:23.880 --> 00:22:27.839
that Trump is doing this. And again once again he's

399
00:22:27.880 --> 00:22:30.960
calling attention to something and he's forcing the other people

400
00:22:31.559 --> 00:22:33.680
either to go along or to look silly.

401
00:22:34.200 --> 00:22:37.359
Exactly, well, and the thing is, who doesn't want, you know,

402
00:22:37.480 --> 00:22:41.119
safe neighborhoods and safe cities again, especially what we're seeing

403
00:22:41.119 --> 00:22:43.400
every time you turn the TV on. You know, you

404
00:22:43.480 --> 00:22:48.319
got police officers being shot, you got ice agents being docks.

405
00:22:48.400 --> 00:22:51.920
I mean here, you've got what is it, the attacks

406
00:22:51.960 --> 00:22:57.279
on ice agents up over eight eight percent now, John, yeah.

407
00:22:57.279 --> 00:22:58.039
Yeah, yeah.

408
00:22:58.119 --> 00:23:02.920
And and and that's again, is a drama that does

409
00:23:03.000 --> 00:23:06.519
not look good for the Democrats.

410
00:23:07.640 --> 00:23:09.200
Trump is trying to clean things up.

411
00:23:09.240 --> 00:23:13.039
Now, I'll say this, I'm like a lot of Republicans,

412
00:23:13.039 --> 00:23:16.319
a lot of conservatives, you know, I have a little

413
00:23:16.359 --> 00:23:22.480
trepidation about rating and arresting people who are been here

414
00:23:22.559 --> 00:23:25.480
for five or ten years and are doing their jobs.

415
00:23:25.599 --> 00:23:28.480
I'd like to see those people be the last people

416
00:23:28.880 --> 00:23:31.200
that we deal with. And I'd like to see a

417
00:23:31.319 --> 00:23:35.440
robust green card program to protect people in those industries

418
00:23:35.960 --> 00:23:40.079
even if they're not citizens and get a green card program.

419
00:23:40.200 --> 00:23:46.640
But that said, on the edges, the fact is rounding

420
00:23:46.720 --> 00:23:49.319
up the bad guys is something we all want.

421
00:23:49.599 --> 00:23:51.839
Right and when you throw the net, you're going to

422
00:23:51.920 --> 00:23:55.240
catch some of these people, unfortunately, But I agree with you,

423
00:23:55.279 --> 00:23:58.559
and hopefully through this process we find a way to

424
00:23:59.680 --> 00:24:02.880
imploy some common sense in this area. I you know,

425
00:24:02.920 --> 00:24:05.599
people have been here for you know, twenty thirty years

426
00:24:05.599 --> 00:24:10.319
and working and you know, and raising families in this country.

427
00:24:10.599 --> 00:24:13.799
I mean, that's been a mistake that we have. You know,

428
00:24:14.599 --> 00:24:17.400
it's on us. But the current you know, the current

429
00:24:17.480 --> 00:24:21.240
surge of fifteen to twenty million illegal immigrants who came

430
00:24:21.279 --> 00:24:24.920
with ties to cartels. Those I have problems when along

431
00:24:24.920 --> 00:24:27.039
with all the gang members, and I think that's where

432
00:24:27.079 --> 00:24:29.559
seventy eighty percent of America says, let's get them out

433
00:24:29.559 --> 00:24:29.880
of here.

434
00:24:30.119 --> 00:24:32.440
This other stuff. I'm with you.

435
00:24:32.519 --> 00:24:38.160
I'm open for reasonable compromise, but getting into this situation

436
00:24:38.359 --> 00:24:41.759
to fast track people into citizenship, that's a whole other issue,

437
00:24:41.759 --> 00:24:44.759
because I believe that was negotiated back during the Reagan

438
00:24:44.839 --> 00:24:47.200
years when the Democrats said, hey, just give us these

439
00:24:47.240 --> 00:24:49.319
three million and we'll never ask again.

440
00:24:50.480 --> 00:24:54.160
Exactly exactly trust us, you know.

441
00:24:54.359 --> 00:25:01.119
So, you know, the the gangs in California are not

442
00:25:01.240 --> 00:25:06.559
really talked about much, but they're very, very strong illegal gangs.

443
00:25:07.039 --> 00:25:10.039
The Cidenios in the south, the D'artagno's in the north,

444
00:25:10.680 --> 00:25:13.960
and it's a pretty rough group there. And if we

445
00:25:14.000 --> 00:25:16.359
can get some of the bad guys out, that would

446
00:25:16.400 --> 00:25:17.000
be fine.

447
00:25:17.240 --> 00:25:19.200
Well, I think that's what America voted. That's why they

448
00:25:19.279 --> 00:25:21.279
voted for Donald Trump because they knew that he was

449
00:25:21.319 --> 00:25:23.960
the guy to do it. So, you know, yes, like

450
00:25:24.079 --> 00:25:28.000
with everything, it's a process, and no doubt, it's not

451
00:25:28.039 --> 00:25:29.839
going to be an easy thing. You can't deal with

452
00:25:29.880 --> 00:25:32.400
this many people. I talk to my friends, they go, well,

453
00:25:32.880 --> 00:25:34.359
you know, how many people is the expert?

454
00:25:34.519 --> 00:25:35.279
Do you realize?

455
00:25:35.680 --> 00:25:38.519
I mean, you know, it would take him longer than

456
00:25:38.559 --> 00:25:41.160
the years that he has in office to clear out.

457
00:25:42.279 --> 00:25:44.759
I don't know what the number fifteen twenty million has

458
00:25:44.799 --> 00:25:47.839
been estimated that came in during Biden. Even if you

459
00:25:47.880 --> 00:25:51.119
take the low number ten million, you still can't you know,

460
00:25:51.279 --> 00:25:52.119
can't do it.

461
00:25:52.400 --> 00:25:55.000
No, you can't do it. Yeah, And of course that

462
00:25:55.079 --> 00:25:58.279
really harms society in so many ways because we're straining

463
00:25:58.279 --> 00:26:04.960
our safety net. We're the black workers who are not

464
00:26:05.160 --> 00:26:08.200
at least those who are not in the educated eleade,

465
00:26:08.839 --> 00:26:13.119
were harming the entry level young men who are trying

466
00:26:13.160 --> 00:26:17.039
to get into the workforce because there's so many illegals

467
00:26:17.039 --> 00:26:20.960
that are coming in and taking those jobs, really harming people.

468
00:26:21.000 --> 00:26:25.640
And that's the Democrats can talk about DEI all they want,

469
00:26:25.720 --> 00:26:29.519
but they're really harming the poor whites and the poor

470
00:26:29.519 --> 00:26:32.160
blacks who are trying to get up there and get

471
00:26:32.160 --> 00:26:33.079
into the workforce.

472
00:26:33.119 --> 00:26:34.519
And it's a shame to see that.

473
00:26:34.880 --> 00:26:36.960
Well, I agree one hundred percent. John O'Connor has been

474
00:26:36.960 --> 00:26:41.480
our guest. He is the legal analyst and author of Postgate,

475
00:26:41.720 --> 00:26:44.839
How the Washington Post betrayed Deep Throat, covered up Watergate,

476
00:26:44.920 --> 00:26:49.079
and began today's partisan advocacy journalism. John, thanks again for

477
00:26:49.119 --> 00:26:50.720
the time. Appreciate it. Take care of my friend.

478
00:26:51.559 --> 00:26:53.279
Good talking to you always.

479
00:26:53.880 --> 00:26:56.480
Chronic migraine fifteen or more headache days a month, each

480
00:26:56.559 --> 00:26:58.720
lasting four hours or more can make me feel like

481
00:26:58.759 --> 00:27:00.440
a spectator in my own life.

484
00:27:06.559 --> 00:27:09.039
fewer headache days a month. It's the number one prescribed

Prescription botox is injected by your doctor.

487
00:27:13.599 --> 00:27:16.160
Effects of botox may spread hours to weeks after injection,

488
00:27:16.240 --> 00:27:20.599
causing serious symptoms. Alert your doctor right away, as difficulties swallowing, speaking, breathing,

489
00:27:20.640 --> 00:27:22.680
eye problems, or muscle weakness can be signs of a

490
00:27:22.680 --> 00:27:25.680
life threatening condition. Patients with these conditions before injection or

491
00:27:25.720 --> 00:27:28.599
at highest rists. Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck

492
00:27:28.599 --> 00:27:31.680
and injection site pain, fatigue, and headache. Allergic reactions can

493
00:27:31.680 --> 00:27:35.039
include rash, welts, asthma symptoms, and dizziness. Don't receive botox

494
00:27:35.079 --> 00:27:37.559
if there's a skin infection. Tell your doctor your medical history,

495
00:27:37.640 --> 00:27:41.359
muscle or nerve conditions including als, Lugaric's disease, Myasthenia gravis

496
00:27:41.519 --> 00:27:45.000
or lamberd Eaton syndrome, and medications including botulinum toxins, as

497
00:27:45.039 --> 00:27:47.279
these may increase the risk of serious side effects.

498
00:27:47.640 --> 00:27:50.920
Why wait, ask your doctor, Visit Botox Chronicmigraine dot com

Well, good morning and welcome back Bill Martinez here, and

546

speaking of welcome back, welcome back doctor Shaye Bradley Ferrell,

547
00:30:37.319 --> 00:30:40.759
the author of the book The Last Morning to the West,

548
00:30:40.799 --> 00:30:41.880
Doctor Shae, how you doing.

549
00:30:42.640 --> 00:30:45.279
I'm good, Bill, And you know I miss it when

550
00:30:45.319 --> 00:30:48.240
I'm not on the show and seeing your face.

551
00:30:48.000 --> 00:30:51.279
And all, well, you're you're very kind. It's been too long.

552
00:30:51.359 --> 00:30:52.319
You can't do this to me.

553
00:30:52.359 --> 00:30:54.680
You know, I got to have my almost at least

554
00:30:54.720 --> 00:30:57.279
monthly dose of doctor Shae Bradley Ferrell.

555
00:30:57.359 --> 00:30:58.599
Or it's just not the same, you know.

556
00:30:59.200 --> 00:31:00.519
That's very kin thankful.

557
00:31:00.599 --> 00:31:04.599
Well, I'm very honest too. Hey, lots to catch up on,

558
00:31:05.599 --> 00:31:08.519
you know, a lot of positive things happening globally. I mean,

559
00:31:08.640 --> 00:31:10.920
in such a short matter of time. You and I

560
00:31:11.000 --> 00:31:12.680
talked about this the last time.

561
00:31:13.440 --> 00:31:17.359
The Trump factor, I mean here America on the world

562
00:31:17.440 --> 00:31:23.880
stage was an absolute disaster. Wars were breaking out. I mean,

563
00:31:23.960 --> 00:31:28.519
our foreign policy was in in uh was being shattered

564
00:31:29.200 --> 00:31:31.839
at every turn, and Donald Trump had some had some

565
00:31:31.960 --> 00:31:32.880
major cleanup to do.

566
00:31:33.200 --> 00:31:35.279
Are you amazed at how fast he was able to

567
00:31:35.319 --> 00:31:35.680
do this?

568
00:31:36.720 --> 00:31:40.720
I am, And I love how much he is disrupting

569
00:31:40.839 --> 00:31:45.240
the status quo beill. So he is recreating the economic

570
00:31:45.400 --> 00:31:48.759
system with the trade issues from the tear ups that

571
00:31:48.799 --> 00:31:53.000
have been going on. He's recreating the political system. You know,

572
00:31:53.119 --> 00:31:58.559
the globalists are so focused on a rules based international order,

573
00:31:59.039 --> 00:32:02.480
but the rules don't always makes sense and you know,

574
00:32:02.920 --> 00:32:08.440
make things successful. Trump doesn't care about their rules. The

575
00:32:08.480 --> 00:32:12.640
foreign policy establishment has this idea of the way things

576
00:32:12.680 --> 00:32:15.279
that should go, and it doesn't matter if it's practical

577
00:32:15.359 --> 00:32:19.079
or not. So, you know this EU, the European Union

578
00:32:19.440 --> 00:32:22.240
trade deal that he just did. I was doing some

579
00:32:22.319 --> 00:32:25.039
reading on it, and I you know, the media and

580
00:32:25.160 --> 00:32:29.839
the foreign policy establishment is calling it economic bullying. Well,

581
00:32:30.680 --> 00:32:35.480
to use a phrase, Bill, that's ball. The European Union,

582
00:32:35.680 --> 00:32:39.079
they are our partners, but they have been raising tariffs

583
00:32:39.119 --> 00:32:44.440
against US and other barriers to our industries, going into

584
00:32:44.480 --> 00:32:48.160
their economies against US for decades. If you look at

585
00:32:48.200 --> 00:32:52.640
the US put out a foreign trade barriers document recently,

586
00:32:52.839 --> 00:32:55.200
you look at that. I tried to read the European

587
00:32:55.359 --> 00:32:59.319
Union's barriers against US. I gave up after fifty pages.

588
00:32:59.400 --> 00:33:02.839
I just can't do it anymore. So they've been doing

589
00:33:02.880 --> 00:33:06.279
this for decades, although we've tried to negotiate a better

590
00:33:06.319 --> 00:33:09.240
deal with them, and they wouldn't do it. So Trump

591
00:33:09.599 --> 00:33:12.799
is putting America first back in our diplomacy.

592
00:33:13.319 --> 00:33:13.799
Exactly.

593
00:33:13.920 --> 00:33:14.920
I'm encouraged by it.

594
00:33:15.000 --> 00:33:15.160
Bill.

595
00:33:15.799 --> 00:33:18.480
Well, the deal is it's okay if we're called a bully,

596
00:33:18.880 --> 00:33:20.880
because that's how you handle a bully.

597
00:33:20.920 --> 00:33:21.799
You bully a bully.

598
00:33:22.160 --> 00:33:25.400
Yeah, And the EU has been a bully and they've

599
00:33:25.400 --> 00:33:28.359
taken all kinds of advantage, and look at how many

600
00:33:28.400 --> 00:33:32.039
presidents just kind of you know, let it go at

601
00:33:32.039 --> 00:33:33.480
the expense of the American people.

602
00:33:33.839 --> 00:33:34.440
And to the.

603
00:33:34.319 --> 00:33:36.960
Point of where we are right now, doctor Shay, is

604
00:33:37.000 --> 00:33:39.359
that you got a lot of young people look in

605
00:33:39.440 --> 00:33:42.160
our country and just saying, wait a minute, capitalism is

606
00:33:42.200 --> 00:33:47.240
in jeopardy, it's not performing, it's no longer affordable. And

607
00:33:47.279 --> 00:33:49.319
so then you get some crazy guy out of New

608
00:33:49.400 --> 00:33:54.400
York promoting communists and socialistic ideals, and they're ready to

609
00:33:54.519 --> 00:33:55.200
jump ship.

610
00:33:56.160 --> 00:33:56.359
Right.

611
00:33:56.759 --> 00:34:00.559
So, because I think young people need something to believe in, right,

612
00:34:00.640 --> 00:34:03.319
and also they're being being told a lot of bunk

613
00:34:03.359 --> 00:34:07.240
all the time by universities and by the mainstream media.

614
00:34:07.720 --> 00:34:10.360
So that's why I'm grateful for shows like yours to

615
00:34:10.400 --> 00:34:13.480
get the truth out. The same thing is happening in Europe.

616
00:34:13.719 --> 00:34:16.000
I had a book tour in Europe this spring. I

617
00:34:16.199 --> 00:34:19.679
have been back several times for conferences to talk about

618
00:34:19.719 --> 00:34:22.880
American foreign policy because we have a lot of partners.

619
00:34:22.920 --> 00:34:24.920
There are a lot of people that are conservatives and

620
00:34:25.000 --> 00:34:28.559
the government and the Citizens Bill that are our friends,

621
00:34:28.679 --> 00:34:32.960
and they actually even understand the rebalancing of this trade.

622
00:34:34.159 --> 00:34:38.639
You know, the European Commission president, who is no prize.

623
00:34:38.679 --> 00:34:41.519
Let me tell you that Wonderland. She even said it

624
00:34:41.559 --> 00:34:45.760
was necessary to rebalance trade. But the Bill, here's the thing.

625
00:34:46.000 --> 00:34:48.480
The EU, they used to have a GDP of about

626
00:34:48.599 --> 00:34:53.119
ninety percent of Americas. They now have dropped down to

627
00:34:53.199 --> 00:34:57.480
about sixty five percent of hours. They have huge burdensome

628
00:34:57.599 --> 00:35:03.119
tax systems. They're bureau increasy is killing their industry. And

629
00:35:03.159 --> 00:35:06.039
then you know this whole Ukraine War that they have

630
00:35:06.159 --> 00:35:12.360
continued to promote rate them. Russia used energy against them

631
00:35:12.400 --> 00:35:15.400
and pulled energy back, which caused their prices to go out.

632
00:35:15.719 --> 00:35:20.360
So anyway, long story short, they need US markets because

633
00:35:20.440 --> 00:35:23.280
we are actually the one that buys the most from

634
00:35:23.320 --> 00:35:27.480
them any of their exports. But Bill, this is all

635
00:35:28.280 --> 00:35:31.360
indicative of what you started out saying in the beginning.

636
00:35:31.440 --> 00:35:34.639
I mean, I call it. I called Trump's new era

637
00:35:34.920 --> 00:35:40.199
of sovereigntist nationalism the foreign policy at the time. I

638
00:35:40.239 --> 00:35:44.440
call it sovereigntist nationalism because he's not just protecting our

639
00:35:44.559 --> 00:35:47.760
sovereignty America. First, you see that with the trade deal,

640
00:35:48.079 --> 00:35:51.079
closing the borders, all of these things, but he also

641
00:35:51.119 --> 00:35:54.960
believes in protecting the sovereignty of our allies and our

642
00:35:54.960 --> 00:35:59.360
pace exactly. He especially did that by you know, saying

643
00:35:59.400 --> 00:36:03.280
that the UN Agency for International Development is not going

644
00:36:03.360 --> 00:36:07.320
to be doing programs over in countries anymore that trumpell

645
00:36:07.360 --> 00:36:11.239
and their religious freedom, their sovereignty, and their political systems.

646
00:36:11.880 --> 00:36:16.519
Yeah, you talk about a shift. This is a shift

647
00:36:16.719 --> 00:36:18.599
for everyone to make right now.

648
00:36:18.920 --> 00:36:20.159
And I think the world.

649
00:36:19.920 --> 00:36:23.559
Leaders, especially our allies, are saying, Okay, hey, we need

650
00:36:23.599 --> 00:36:25.519
to get on board here. This can be a win

651
00:36:25.639 --> 00:36:30.320
win proposition. And there's nothing wrong with being nationalistic, is there.

652
00:36:31.119 --> 00:36:35.199
No, it's actually what countries are made of. We get

653
00:36:35.280 --> 00:36:38.280
together and we agree on legal systems, we agree on

654
00:36:38.360 --> 00:36:42.599
economic systems, we agree on social systems, and then you

655
00:36:42.760 --> 00:36:45.880
have a nation that comes from that that's actually, know,

656
00:36:46.000 --> 00:36:47.519
part of what democracy is.

657
00:36:47.559 --> 00:36:48.719
Right right, exactly.

658
00:36:49.079 --> 00:36:53.000
So it's very important to do that. And Trump encourages

659
00:36:53.079 --> 00:36:56.960
other countries to put their country first. That's even a

660
00:36:57.079 --> 00:37:01.239
slogan of Hungary. You know, they put hungry first. Yes,

661
00:37:01.320 --> 00:37:05.239
that makes sense. Everybody takes care of themselves and then

662
00:37:05.440 --> 00:37:09.480
we help each other when we really need it. But

663
00:37:09.760 --> 00:37:14.280
you know, these tariffs were from the European Union, were

664
00:37:14.320 --> 00:37:20.639
an example of how far we've gone in the opposite direction, exactly,

665
00:37:20.719 --> 00:37:24.280
you know how you've heard globalists and people like Obama

666
00:37:24.320 --> 00:37:27.440
and some other people actually that shouldn't be saying this,

667
00:37:27.679 --> 00:37:31.199
that we have to rebalance power in the world. Well,

668
00:37:31.239 --> 00:37:33.960
what that really means is the US is giving up

669
00:37:34.079 --> 00:37:34.960
our own power.

670
00:37:35.360 --> 00:37:38.920
Exactly How stupid is that to the globalist, to this

671
00:37:39.199 --> 00:37:44.519
other unelected body of oligarchs that have their own interests

672
00:37:44.559 --> 00:37:48.400
in mind, and it has nothing to do with our

673
00:37:48.519 --> 00:37:51.599
US constitution, free markets, or capitalism.

674
00:37:52.360 --> 00:37:56.000
That is exactly right, and that is it's hard to

675
00:37:56.039 --> 00:37:58.360
wrap your mind around the fact that people think this

676
00:37:58.519 --> 00:38:02.639
is normal, this status who So Trump has said, nope,

677
00:38:02.719 --> 00:38:06.400
we're not We're not going to pay your tariffs anymore.

678
00:38:06.840 --> 00:38:09.199
And nope, we're gonna pay We're not going to pay

679
00:38:09.199 --> 00:38:12.159
more than our fair share of NATO, you know, and

680
00:38:12.480 --> 00:38:16.519
so everybody's going, oh, bully, bully, threatening.

681
00:38:16.119 --> 00:38:19.039
Threatening, he's a fascist, he's a fascist.

682
00:38:19.119 --> 00:38:24.079
Oh my gosh, it's nobody. No president, you know, in

683
00:38:24.119 --> 00:38:26.599
the past decades has really done as much as he

684
00:38:27.159 --> 00:38:30.800
has to address this. We've been doing this kind of

685
00:38:30.800 --> 00:38:33.280
thing since the end of World War Two with a

686
00:38:33.320 --> 00:38:37.360
Marshall Plan and then we had this huge decades And

687
00:38:37.519 --> 00:38:41.800
I'm a former international development professional, so I know this firsthand.

688
00:38:42.079 --> 00:38:47.599
We had decades of also giving other countries priority in

689
00:38:47.719 --> 00:38:53.559
trade to help them develop. Well, China has surpassed where

690
00:38:53.599 --> 00:38:58.039
we really would want them, right, So that was another example,

691
00:38:58.079 --> 00:39:01.239
and that's why Trump has tried to also, you know,

692
00:39:01.400 --> 00:39:03.159
balance the power with China.

693
00:39:03.599 --> 00:39:04.559
Yeah, not balance.

694
00:39:04.679 --> 00:39:05.400
I didn't mean that.

695
00:39:05.760 --> 00:39:08.400
Well, no, but I understand what you're saying. But I mean,

696
00:39:08.519 --> 00:39:09.519
you know, fair's fair.

697
00:39:09.639 --> 00:39:12.880
What has China done. You know what they've done is

698
00:39:12.920 --> 00:39:17.000
they've gone and absconded. You know, all these trade deals

699
00:39:17.000 --> 00:39:21.079
for mineral deals and advantage that is all about China first,

700
00:39:21.400 --> 00:39:24.360
and it's not any kind of consideration to any kind

701
00:39:24.360 --> 00:39:27.559
of alliance with these other countries. I mean, they're just

702
00:39:27.559 --> 00:39:29.719
putting the squeeze on them and putting them in a

703
00:39:29.760 --> 00:39:33.639
position to where they will default and then they end

704
00:39:33.719 --> 00:39:36.000
up going into bankruptcy and guess who holds the note.

705
00:39:36.920 --> 00:39:39.639
Yeah, that's right. And you know this whole Ukraine War

706
00:39:39.760 --> 00:39:44.440
thing with Biden putting sanctions on Russia that did not work.

707
00:39:44.559 --> 00:39:47.159
So I don't know why people right now are saying, oh,

708
00:39:47.320 --> 00:39:50.920
you know, the sanctions, they never worked. First of all,

709
00:39:52.320 --> 00:39:55.840
so Russia instead of selling its energy to the EU,

710
00:39:56.000 --> 00:40:00.159
which is very heavily has been reliant on Russian energy,

711
00:40:01.400 --> 00:40:05.159
constricted that amount so that energy prices soared in Europe

712
00:40:05.280 --> 00:40:09.519
and hurt their economy further. But Bill then they turned

713
00:40:09.559 --> 00:40:13.000
around and sold the same energy to China for half price,

714
00:40:13.719 --> 00:40:16.440
so it helped both of them. And that's only one

715
00:40:16.480 --> 00:40:20.880
example of how their alliance has strengthened under the Biden administration.

716
00:40:21.079 --> 00:40:25.280
And you're right, we gotta rectify this. And I think

717
00:40:25.320 --> 00:40:29.400
that President Trump, I don't think I know is he

718
00:40:29.519 --> 00:40:30.760
is doing very.

719
00:40:30.599 --> 00:40:33.440
Well without a doubt on behalf of the American people.

720
00:40:33.880 --> 00:40:36.360
Doctor sha Bradley Ferrell continues with us right after this,

stay with us.

722
00:40:37.840 --> 00:40:40.480
Substance use and mental health often go hands in hand.

723
00:40:41.000 --> 00:40:43.559
Research sells that teams who struggle with their mental health

724
00:40:43.800 --> 00:40:47.280
are more likely to use drugs and alcohol. That's why

725

you play a powerful role. Stay connected with your team

729
00:41:00.639 --> 00:41:03.320
can reduce their risk for drug use. Before you talk

730
00:41:03.360 --> 00:41:05.960
to them about drugs, talk to them about how they're

731
00:41:06.000 --> 00:41:11.239
really doing, and remember empathy is key. Ask questions, listen

732
00:41:11.280 --> 00:41:15.800
without judgment, lead with compassion, Let them know they're not alone,

733
00:41:16.360 --> 00:41:20.039

of Counterpoint Institute for Policy Research and Education in Washington, DC.

She also is celebrating the first time you've got that's

793
00:45:00.159 --> 00:45:03.679
your article now running in a new location, and you've

794
00:45:03.719 --> 00:45:05.679
hit the ground running. I mean, I've saw the numbers

795
00:45:05.719 --> 00:45:07.599
on it right out the gate. You got a lot

796
00:45:07.639 --> 00:45:09.920
of people, a lot of buys on your article under

797
00:45:09.960 --> 00:45:12.360
Trump foreign policy as a return to sovereignty for the

798
00:45:12.440 --> 00:45:14.000
US and global nations.

799
00:45:14.079 --> 00:45:16.000
Great job, Thank you very much.

800
00:45:16.039 --> 00:45:19.800
Bill. I just became a regular columnist for Human Events,

801
00:45:20.239 --> 00:45:22.880
and I'm very excited about that because you know, that

802
00:45:23.199 --> 00:45:27.159
was called Ronald Reagan's favorite newspaper back in the day,

803
00:45:27.400 --> 00:45:29.400
and they've done a lot of good stuff. So it's

804
00:45:29.440 --> 00:45:30.440
really quite an honor.

805
00:45:31.000 --> 00:45:34.079
Well good and it's great to have your perspective on

806
00:45:34.119 --> 00:45:37.880
this because you bring a lot of a lot of

807
00:45:37.960 --> 00:45:41.079
leverage and experience on these particular issues that people aren't

808
00:45:41.079 --> 00:45:43.679
talking about that are really important. And some people may say,

809
00:45:43.719 --> 00:45:47.559
doctor Sha, well this is nuanced, but it's all elemental.

810
00:45:47.760 --> 00:45:51.679
All these different elements and box cars, so to speak,

811
00:45:51.960 --> 00:45:55.880
tie into one another and you get this reaction that

812
00:45:55.960 --> 00:45:59.280
takes place and it's easy. I mean, you can react

813
00:45:59.559 --> 00:46:03.119
and get knee jerky, but you really miss If you

814
00:46:03.119 --> 00:46:05.960
don't understand the full nuance, then you're going to get

815
00:46:06.000 --> 00:46:09.360
yourself in deeper trouble, right, Yes.

816
00:46:09.519 --> 00:46:11.920
And a lot of the problem though, and I know

817
00:46:11.960 --> 00:46:13.800
people talk about this all the time, but I am

818
00:46:13.880 --> 00:46:18.199
just especially angered by this is the media because, like

819
00:46:18.239 --> 00:46:20.400
I said, I was in Europe a lot, and this

820
00:46:20.519 --> 00:46:22.280
is what I meant to say. I guess I didn't.

821
00:46:22.760 --> 00:46:25.079
I've been in Europe a lot in the past three months,

822
00:46:25.119 --> 00:46:29.000
and all the media that they are getting there is

823
00:46:29.119 --> 00:46:32.400
negative about Trump. So they're not explaining what you and

824
00:46:32.400 --> 00:46:35.840
I are talking about right now. It's all negative, you know,

825
00:46:35.920 --> 00:46:38.760
and the US is going downhill and it's a bunch

826
00:46:38.800 --> 00:46:42.639
of Belgney. So it's the nuances have to be talked

827
00:46:42.639 --> 00:46:46.599
about over and over and over again, right, correct, All

828
00:46:46.679 --> 00:46:48.960
of these things are working together.

829
00:46:48.639 --> 00:46:50.440
For good, right exactly.

830
00:46:50.719 --> 00:46:50.880
Well.

831
00:46:50.920 --> 00:46:52.360
And the thing is this is the power of the

832
00:46:52.360 --> 00:46:54.679
truth is it comes out, And this is what's happening

833
00:46:54.679 --> 00:46:56.719
in our country. I mean, the mainstream media has been

834
00:46:56.760 --> 00:47:00.880
greatly exposed, you know. Ever since Trump, you know, came

835
00:47:00.960 --> 00:47:06.280
down the escalator, all the media has been focused on

836
00:47:06.360 --> 00:47:10.599
negative I mean, MRC continues to do research and reports

837
00:47:10.599 --> 00:47:13.519
on it. Ninety five percent of what they report is

838
00:47:13.559 --> 00:47:16.199
negative about Donald Trump. And I've said that this is

839
00:47:16.360 --> 00:47:19.960
he's probably one of the most apocalyptic figures on the

840
00:47:19.960 --> 00:47:23.880
political scene ever because he's exposed all this, I mean,

841
00:47:24.000 --> 00:47:27.800
now to the point we're exposing the FBI and what

842
00:47:27.960 --> 00:47:31.719
really happened with Russia Gate, Doctor Sha, I mean, and

843
00:47:31.760 --> 00:47:34.719
this is just the beginning. It's like, Okay, you know,

844
00:47:34.960 --> 00:47:38.559
can you handle the truth? Because this is really this

845
00:47:38.719 --> 00:47:42.119
is bad stuff. When you got a president, a sitting

846
00:47:42.159 --> 00:47:48.639
president of the United States, manipulating an incoming president's administration

847
00:47:49.159 --> 00:47:52.840
in the manner in which Barack Obama did, I mean,

848
00:47:54.400 --> 00:47:57.320
there's got to be I mean, America is outraged and

849
00:47:57.360 --> 00:47:59.639
there has to be consequences.

850
00:47:58.880 --> 00:48:03.159
On thiste lately. And you gotta love Tulci Gabbard. She's

851
00:48:03.800 --> 00:48:06.679
that I actually met her a few years ago and

852
00:48:06.719 --> 00:48:10.480
had a good conversation with her. But saying that Obama's

853
00:48:10.480 --> 00:48:13.960
actions were treason us. She got right to the heart

854
00:48:13.960 --> 00:48:15.079
of the matter, didn't she.

855
00:48:15.280 --> 00:48:16.920
A Yeah, she really did proud of that.

856
00:48:17.599 --> 00:48:20.079
But you know, Chris, my husband and I that you

857
00:48:20.119 --> 00:48:23.480
know so well, we were talking today like what has happened?

858
00:48:23.679 --> 00:48:26.840
We know about the Russian Russian hoax, the you know,

859
00:48:26.920 --> 00:48:30.119
the Obama is involved. We have we're just talking about

860
00:48:30.159 --> 00:48:34.199
it right now, and we need we need some real

861
00:48:34.400 --> 00:48:38.280
concrete consequences for this, and you know so many other

862
00:48:38.320 --> 00:48:39.800
things that have been revealed.

863
00:48:39.840 --> 00:48:43.960
Bill Well, uh, the neat stuff about it is even

864
00:48:44.280 --> 00:48:47.920
the cultural reaction that's going on, doctor Sha and that

865
00:48:48.119 --> 00:48:54.480
is is that it's okay to be beautiful and blonde.

866
00:48:55.280 --> 00:48:57.519
Okay. I thought that one was such a stretch.

867
00:48:57.559 --> 00:48:59.840
You know, well you you thought you thought I was

868
00:48:59.840 --> 00:49:03.000
going and somewhere else with that. No, I'm just you know,

869
00:49:03.760 --> 00:49:07.039
with all that that's happened, it's like it's a breath

870
00:49:07.039 --> 00:49:10.039
of fresh air because now you can sit there and go, yeah,

871
00:49:10.039 --> 00:49:11.400
I mean, this isn't racist.

872
00:49:11.719 --> 00:49:14.920
It's just here's a beautiful woman. What what is wrong

873
00:49:14.960 --> 00:49:15.360
with that?

874
00:49:16.440 --> 00:49:19.559
Seriously? I just rolled my eyes. You want to talk

875
00:49:19.559 --> 00:49:23.079
about real Nazism, you know, read my book Last Morning

876
00:49:23.119 --> 00:49:27.480
to the West. That's real Nazism that hungry was under

877
00:49:28.000 --> 00:49:31.880
uh and oppressed for I guess, uh, I guess the

878
00:49:31.920 --> 00:49:33.679
Germans were in there for about a year, a year

879
00:49:33.719 --> 00:49:37.400
and a half. But that's real Nazism. What Poland went through.

880
00:49:37.440 --> 00:49:42.280
They just had the Warsaw Uprising Celebration anniversary. I was

881
00:49:42.280 --> 00:49:45.639
in the Warsaw Rising Museum this year. Bill, I had

882
00:49:45.639 --> 00:49:50.320
a book event in Warsaw. That's Nazism, you want to talk.

883
00:49:51.000 --> 00:49:57.599
I mean, yeah, this stupid cultural wou wocism. It's it's

884
00:49:57.639 --> 00:50:00.559
it's very hard to uh, you know, just take deep

885
00:50:00.599 --> 00:50:03.960
breath and move on because it's so ludicrous. But I

886
00:50:04.159 --> 00:50:07.480
think Bill that they do that in large part because

887
00:50:07.760 --> 00:50:11.480
they don't have real policies. They don't have real things

888
00:50:11.559 --> 00:50:14.280
to complain about, so they've got to make it up.

889
00:50:14.840 --> 00:50:18.519
Yeah, and what have they built? You know, what did

890
00:50:18.559 --> 00:50:21.119
Biden build up in the four years that he was there?

891
00:50:21.159 --> 00:50:24.280
Even Barack Obama? What did You can look back and

892
00:50:24.280 --> 00:50:26.719
you say, boy, I'm sure glad we got Obamacare.

893
00:50:27.360 --> 00:50:28.559
I'm sure glad.

894
00:50:28.840 --> 00:50:31.480
You know the way he handled he and Hillary Clinton

895
00:50:31.519 --> 00:50:32.480
handled BEng Ghazi.

896
00:50:33.199 --> 00:50:35.559
I mean it was just you know, which is a

897
00:50:35.639 --> 00:50:36.559
whole nother but.

898
00:50:36.840 --> 00:50:40.920
It's all See, it is all entangled in this bucket

899
00:50:40.960 --> 00:50:44.400
of lies that we're having to deal with, and now

900
00:50:44.440 --> 00:50:46.519
here it is and as you say, thank God for

901
00:50:46.599 --> 00:50:50.639
Tulsa Gabbard and the current administration that you know is

902
00:50:50.719 --> 00:50:53.719
going after this to really find out what the truth

903
00:50:53.719 --> 00:50:57.239
of the matter was. And you know what this effected.

904
00:50:57.320 --> 00:50:59.679
I mean, because you think of the end result. If

905
00:50:59.719 --> 00:51:02.440
Don Trump had been in office, we wouldn't have Russian

906
00:51:02.519 --> 00:51:04.239
Ukraine right now, right.

907
00:51:04.480 --> 00:51:07.920
Oh, that's absolutely true. Absolutely, we wouldn't have had a

908
00:51:07.960 --> 00:51:11.000
lot of things built. You said that Biden didn't build anything.

909
00:51:11.480 --> 00:51:14.400
You know, the first year, I was kind of confused, like,

910
00:51:14.480 --> 00:51:18.159
what is going on? You really believe these policies that

911
00:51:18.239 --> 00:51:21.719
are hurting America. Then I realized in short order that

912
00:51:21.840 --> 00:51:25.440
Biden was really trying to destroy America or whoever was

913
00:51:25.559 --> 00:51:29.119
using the autopen because we have you know, almost twenty

914
00:51:29.239 --> 00:51:32.119
million people here illegally, a lot of whom we don't

915
00:51:32.119 --> 00:51:32.840
know who they are.

916
00:51:33.320 --> 00:51:37.039
I spent weeks, well twenty that's twenty million plus plus

917
00:51:37.280 --> 00:51:40.519
because we already had probably twenty million. I mean, they

918
00:51:40.639 --> 00:51:43.320
kept using that number, which used to drive me nuts. Oh,

919
00:51:43.400 --> 00:51:45.840
eleven million. They use that for over ten years. Let

920
00:51:45.920 --> 00:51:50.719
me tell you what happens. You know, people reproduce, okay,

921
00:51:50.519 --> 00:51:54.239
so it's not a static number, that eleven. That eleven

922
00:51:54.320 --> 00:51:57.639
was probably twenty twenty five before Biden took office. He

923
00:51:57.800 --> 00:52:00.480
dumps in another twenty million. Now we're talking in forty

924
00:52:00.480 --> 00:52:04.360
five maybe fifty million illegals and currently in that current

925
00:52:04.480 --> 00:52:08.280
rash transh of illegals, how many of those were tied

926
00:52:08.320 --> 00:52:09.960
to cartels?

927
00:52:10.559 --> 00:52:13.119
Oh? Many of them? I was going to say. You know,

928
00:52:13.159 --> 00:52:16.880
I spent several weeks down at the border interviewing ranchers

929
00:52:16.920 --> 00:52:21.880
and sheriffs and people law enforcement, border patrol, even HSI

930
00:52:22.239 --> 00:52:25.400
finding out what was really going on. And the majority

931
00:52:25.400 --> 00:52:30.000
of people coming across were military aged men. Yes, a

932
00:52:30.039 --> 00:52:33.920
lot of them connected to cartels. Yes, nobody gets across

933
00:52:33.920 --> 00:52:37.280
the border without the cartels knowing it, because if you

934
00:52:37.360 --> 00:52:39.920
do that without them knowing it, they'll kill you or

935
00:52:40.239 --> 00:52:40.840
your family.

936
00:52:41.039 --> 00:52:43.360
It's very simple, because you're an asset.

937
00:52:43.760 --> 00:52:47.760
Because just in human trafficking alone, last year, doctor Sha,

938
00:52:48.079 --> 00:52:51.559
what thirteen billion dollars in human trafficking to the cartels

939
00:52:51.920 --> 00:52:52.840
and Bill.

940
00:52:52.599 --> 00:52:55.519
That's the part, honestly that breaks my heart. I had

941
00:52:55.519 --> 00:52:58.840
written a couple of stories about that, because I believe

942
00:52:58.880 --> 00:53:02.360
one of them was for human events. Actually, I believe

943
00:53:02.400 --> 00:53:06.679
that that was the largest human trafficking scheme probably in history,

944
00:53:07.159 --> 00:53:10.480
and nobody was talking about it. I did an interview

945
00:53:10.719 --> 00:53:14.199
with a man who is an emergency medical professional down

946
00:53:14.199 --> 00:53:17.760
there on the border, working along with the Border patrol,

947
00:53:18.440 --> 00:53:22.920
and this was near Del Rio, and big burly guy

948
00:53:23.480 --> 00:53:26.000
getting tears in his eyes telling me about the women

949
00:53:26.360 --> 00:53:28.800
who were fourteen and fifteen, if you want to call him,

950
00:53:28.840 --> 00:53:33.119
women that he had to help and seeing the effects

951
00:53:33.159 --> 00:53:36.079
of the rape that had happened to them as they

952
00:53:36.079 --> 00:53:39.719
were traveling along with men with a cartel whatever it is.

953
00:53:40.280 --> 00:53:41.760
One thing he said to me is you know you

954
00:53:41.800 --> 00:53:43.320
can see it in their eyes.

955
00:53:43.920 --> 00:53:44.159
Yeah.

956
00:53:45.000 --> 00:53:48.039
I mean we both cried over this because nobody's talked

957
00:53:48.039 --> 00:53:52.039
about that. Nobody's talked about the consequences. As he pointed

958
00:53:52.079 --> 00:53:54.840
out to me, you know about two three, four years

959
00:53:54.880 --> 00:53:59.039
from now, what is happening to these young women who

960
00:53:59.079 --> 00:54:00.880
went through such trauma.

961
00:54:00.599 --> 00:54:05.159
Because it's it's PTSD, they'll carry with them forever. And

962
00:54:05.199 --> 00:54:08.440
you're not even talking about the bodies of women that

963
00:54:08.519 --> 00:54:10.199
were left in the Darian pass right.

964
00:54:10.400 --> 00:54:13.159
That is exactly right, because there were bodies of women

965
00:54:13.280 --> 00:54:16.840
left all over the place, not even just there. Talk

966
00:54:16.920 --> 00:54:19.559
to another woman who was a rancher, her husband was

967
00:54:19.599 --> 00:54:24.320
actually border patrol and they found dead bodies on their property.

968
00:54:24.679 --> 00:54:27.760
Can you imagine quite often it was a very traumatic

969
00:54:28.039 --> 00:54:30.599
way for them to live. It was terrible.

970
00:54:31.119 --> 00:54:35.199
Well, look at Uh, I believe we're at a turning

971
00:54:35.239 --> 00:54:36.239
point in this country.

972
00:54:36.239 --> 00:54:38.880
But uh, there's going to be a lot, you know,

973
00:54:38.960 --> 00:54:39.920
like a lot to deal with.

974
00:54:39.960 --> 00:54:43.000
As you said, you know the PTSD issue, you know

975
00:54:43.119 --> 00:54:45.840
damage that was done. Uh you know you look at

976
00:54:45.880 --> 00:54:48.880
what Biden because you brought up that question what Biden

977
00:54:49.000 --> 00:54:52.599
was doing, Well, Biden was continuing the fundamental transformation of

978
00:54:52.639 --> 00:54:55.800
this country that was started by by Barack Obama. Right

979
00:54:56.719 --> 00:54:59.800
because because because all the acolytes that were involved in

980
00:54:59.840 --> 00:55:03.360
the in the Obama administration had carried over and then

981
00:55:03.400 --> 00:55:05.519
there was at least four thousand, if I remember the

982
00:55:05.599 --> 00:55:09.880
number correctly, four thousand people within the administration that Obama

983
00:55:10.000 --> 00:55:13.519
moved in to government to kind of be there as

984
00:55:13.679 --> 00:55:18.639
moles and as a backstop against Donald Trump his first administration.

985
00:55:19.440 --> 00:55:22.599
Yeah, that is exactly right. It was Obama two point zero.

986
00:55:22.800 --> 00:55:25.119
And I got a question for you, Bill, just because

987
00:55:25.119 --> 00:55:29.320
I'm curious, Okay, who do you think what's controlling the autopen?

988
00:55:30.960 --> 00:55:34.480
Well, I can tell you who it wasn't me too,

989
00:55:34.559 --> 00:55:37.199
I can tell you who it was, right exactly.

990
00:55:37.480 --> 00:55:41.840
I mean there were so many people involved there, you know.

991
00:55:42.159 --> 00:55:46.079
And I'll tell you if knowing Hunter Biden, if he

992
00:55:46.119 --> 00:55:51.360
had the ability to sell that autopen usage. Who knows,

993
00:55:51.400 --> 00:55:54.320
maybe we might open a rock and find out. Oh yeah,

994
00:55:54.480 --> 00:55:57.719
you know, I paid the Hunter Biden, you know, a

995
00:55:57.719 --> 00:55:59.880
half million dollars for the autopen U.

996
00:56:00.920 --> 00:56:05.239
Right, and think about how that affects all the decisions

997
00:56:05.280 --> 00:56:09.039
that were made in the United States during the Biden administration.

998
00:56:09.559 --> 00:56:13.119
Were they real decisions? Were they legal? Were they you

999
00:56:13.159 --> 00:56:14.039
know what I'm saying.

1000
00:56:13.920 --> 00:56:18.440
It's exactly well, you see, this is what you talk about,

1001
00:56:18.480 --> 00:56:24.360
a constitutional crisis, and you know, democracy being threatened.

1002
00:56:25.239 --> 00:56:27.599
What else I mean? It's funny because.

1003
00:56:27.360 --> 00:56:30.159
We're being gas lit the very thing that they're accusing

1004
00:56:30.199 --> 00:56:32.760
Republicans of doing, the very things they've done.

1005
00:56:32.880 --> 00:56:35.960
Doctor h Yeah, it is a lot of gaslighting. It's

1006
00:56:36.000 --> 00:56:38.519
funny that you say that. I also started writing a

1007
00:56:38.519 --> 00:56:42.320
column for this really interesting foundation. It's called Patriots for

1008
00:56:42.440 --> 00:56:46.800
Europe and they are the educational arm of the Conservative

1009
00:56:46.840 --> 00:56:50.639
Coalition of the European Union. Oh Wow asked me to

1010
00:56:50.679 --> 00:56:53.480
start writing a column for them also to give the

1011
00:56:53.639 --> 00:56:57.360
US view. But the last one I did was on immigration.

1012
00:56:57.880 --> 00:57:03.920
And we've got Governor Newsom and Karen Bass you know,

1013
00:57:04.000 --> 00:57:08.880
this June saying how the riots were really peaceful, and

1014
00:57:08.960 --> 00:57:13.000
I'm looking at pictures of people throwing bottles at police

1015
00:57:13.119 --> 00:57:17.719
and injuring police and blowing up cars and throwing rocks

1016
00:57:17.880 --> 00:57:21.239
at police, and I'm like, that's gaslighting at.

1017
00:57:21.119 --> 00:57:24.480
Its best, right exactly. Yeah, they are the poster children

1018
00:57:24.480 --> 00:57:25.880

1054
00:59:30.239 --> 00:59:32.119
Good morning, and welcome. Good to have you with us.

1055
00:59:32.159 --> 00:59:35.079
I'm Bill Martinez, and I'm got a real treat for you.

1056
00:59:35.400 --> 00:59:38.960
We're going to talk about Saint Elizabeth and Setan, a

1057
00:59:38.960 --> 00:59:43.639
spiritual portrait with Sister Betty Anne McNeil. She's the editor

1058
00:59:43.760 --> 00:59:48.440
at Saint Elizabeth and Setan and Sister.

1059
00:59:48.519 --> 00:59:49.599
Welcome, Michelle, good to have.

1060
00:59:49.599 --> 00:59:50.039
You with us.

1061
00:59:50.320 --> 00:59:51.599
Thank you so much, Bill.

1062
00:59:52.000 --> 00:59:55.039
Well, congratulations on this book. I mean, what prompted you

1063
00:59:55.440 --> 01:00:00.239
to bring this book out for the public again to reissue.

1064
00:59:59.800 --> 01:00:06.159
This The book needed a little dusting off, and it's

1065
01:00:06.239 --> 01:00:09.719
full of quotes from Elizabeth Seton, but at the time

1066
01:00:09.840 --> 01:00:13.519
the original author of Father, Joseph Durban, did the writing.

1067
01:00:14.320 --> 01:00:18.400
The writings of Elizabeth Seton were in multiple archives in

1068
01:00:18.480 --> 01:00:24.159
North America and elsewhere. So since then the writings have

1069
01:00:24.239 --> 01:00:29.519
been published in three volumes Elizabeth Bailey Seaton Collected Writings.

1070
01:00:29.760 --> 01:00:32.599
So I thought it would be helpful for readers if

1071
01:00:32.639 --> 01:00:36.360
they could find the source of each comment and for

1072
01:00:36.519 --> 01:00:40.679
scholars who would want to do further research. So that

1073
01:00:40.840 --> 01:00:45.280
was the motivation in reviewing the text and matching updating

1074
01:00:45.360 --> 01:00:49.760
each quotation of Elizabeth Seton to her published writings for

1075
01:00:49.840 --> 01:00:52.599
the convenience of readers and scholars.

1076
01:00:53.079 --> 01:00:58.599
Well, sister, as you know her writings, her life. Wow,

1077
01:00:58.239 --> 01:01:02.960
what a powerful dimension you know that's involved here. And

1078
01:01:03.360 --> 01:01:06.320
this is really a blessing that you would reissue this

1079
01:01:06.360 --> 01:01:09.119
book because I think there's a lot for us to

1080
01:01:09.199 --> 01:01:11.760
understand about this incredible saint.

1081
01:01:12.760 --> 01:01:16.280
It's very timely and the important thing to remember is

1082
01:01:16.920 --> 01:01:21.320
Elizabeth Satan was not a plastic statue. She was a woman.

1083
01:01:21.679 --> 01:01:24.760
She was a young child that lived in a blended family.

1084
01:01:24.880 --> 01:01:29.559
She was a teen who grew up with heartache over

1085
01:01:29.840 --> 01:01:35.159
her father's absence because of medical studies. She married and

1086
01:01:35.280 --> 01:01:40.559
had a wonderful husband and very happy until illness and

1087
01:01:40.639 --> 01:01:44.159
bankruptcy hit. So she was a woman who struggled, like

1088
01:01:44.320 --> 01:01:49.000
so many parents do today, to care for their loved ones,

1089
01:01:49.320 --> 01:01:53.679
or to make financial decisions, and how to raise their children,

1090
01:01:53.840 --> 01:01:56.159
and what faith to raise their children in.

1091
01:01:58.239 --> 01:02:02.920
Well, and as you say, I mean, it's almost the

1092
01:02:02.960 --> 01:02:05.239
basis of our faith, isn't it is when we go

1093
01:02:05.320 --> 01:02:09.280
through that refiner's fire. It's not like, I mean, whenever

1094
01:02:09.320 --> 01:02:11.239
you read about any saint, it's not like it was

1095
01:02:11.280 --> 01:02:12.480
all hunky dory.

1096
01:02:12.239 --> 01:02:16.599
Right, Well, that is exactly correct. As a young child,

1097
01:02:17.440 --> 01:02:22.280
she learned about Psalm twenty three, and somehow she learned

1098
01:02:22.679 --> 01:02:26.199
that God is a loving God and God provides. And

1099
01:02:26.840 --> 01:02:30.559
she looked to the heavens seeing looking for God in

1100
01:02:30.599 --> 01:02:33.400
the clouds because she was looking for her mother and

1101
01:02:33.480 --> 01:02:37.559
her baby sitter, who died when she was barely three

1102
01:02:37.639 --> 01:02:42.679
years old. So long life of suffering and loss was

1103
01:02:42.719 --> 01:02:47.320
like a ribbon going through her entire life and that's

1104
01:02:47.400 --> 01:02:52.360
the reality of everyone. We lose loved ones and life

1105
01:02:52.679 --> 01:02:56.079
is in a bowl of cherries, that's for sure. Exactly

1106
01:02:56.599 --> 01:03:02.599
for Elizabeth, she really believed that divine Providence was looking

1107
01:03:02.639 --> 01:03:05.920
out for her and Some twenty three was her favorite

1108
01:03:05.960 --> 01:03:10.039
throughout her life. Then when she went to Italy with

1109
01:03:10.079 --> 01:03:14.159
her husband, hoping that the sea voyage would be curative,

1110
01:03:15.719 --> 01:03:18.880
and it really wasn't, and they were put into quarantine

1111
01:03:19.159 --> 01:03:24.599
and rejected by Immigration of officials because there was fear

1112
01:03:24.639 --> 01:03:28.199
that they were carrying yellow fever. But when he died

1113
01:03:28.239 --> 01:03:34.039
two weeks later, she was welcomed to the gracious hospitality

1114
01:03:34.199 --> 01:03:37.639
of the Filiki family, who were friends of the husband

1115
01:03:37.719 --> 01:03:42.480
and business partners, and it was they who in showing

1116
01:03:42.519 --> 01:03:46.679
her around Italy the hotspots, if you will, There were

1117
01:03:46.760 --> 01:03:50.480
churches which were the center of worship but the center

1118
01:03:50.559 --> 01:03:54.159
of art. And it was there in churches that she

1119
01:03:54.320 --> 01:03:59.639
discovered the beauty of Catholic liturgy, the awesome concept of

1120
01:03:59.679 --> 01:04:04.719
the presence of Jesus and the Eucharist. Yes, and Mary

1121
01:04:04.760 --> 01:04:08.559
in portraits of Mary as a sorrowful mother and God knows,

1122
01:04:08.920 --> 01:04:12.440
Elizabeth Seton knew sorrow as a mother, so she began

1123
01:04:12.559 --> 01:04:13.840
to identify.

1124
01:04:13.360 --> 01:04:16.840
With Mary Now was she raised Catholic.

1125
01:04:17.599 --> 01:04:21.920
No, she was an Episcopalian in New York and was

1126
01:04:22.039 --> 01:04:27.639
raised in Episcopalian practice. Her faith was a devoted Episcopal

1127
01:04:27.719 --> 01:04:32.719
Communicant and very active in social ministry of that day.

1128
01:04:32.920 --> 01:04:37.920
She and some other women established the first social service

1129
01:04:38.079 --> 01:04:43.760
organization for outreach to poor widows with young children WOW,

1130
01:04:43.960 --> 01:04:48.559
the agency organized and founded by women in the United States.

1131
01:04:48.960 --> 01:04:53.559
So she wasn't actively an Episcopalian, and Catholics were looked

1132
01:04:53.599 --> 01:04:58.360
down upon at that time. The few Catholics were really

1133
01:04:58.800 --> 01:05:02.679
Irish immigrants who were among the working class.

1134
01:05:03.719 --> 01:05:05.199
So it was in Italy.

1135
01:05:04.920 --> 01:05:09.079
That she was first introduced to the Catholic faith. But

1136
01:05:09.199 --> 01:05:13.360
the families she was staying with were well educated and

1137
01:05:13.599 --> 01:05:17.960
they could explain their faith, and they could explain doctrine,

1138
01:05:18.360 --> 01:05:20.599
and in the end, when she was leading, one of

1139
01:05:20.639 --> 01:05:24.440
them wrote a very long dissertation about the truth of

1140
01:05:24.480 --> 01:05:29.400
the Catholic faith, which Elizabeth Seton's etiscopal pastor took a

1141
01:05:29.480 --> 01:05:33.679
part line by line, trying to when she returned. It's

1142
01:05:33.760 --> 01:05:36.360
kind of stir. When she came back with the Catholic.

1143
01:05:36.119 --> 01:05:39.840
Hert well, I can imagine, I mean, because here it is.

1144
01:05:40.000 --> 01:05:45.920
I mean, she even translates to the point of realizing

1145
01:05:46.159 --> 01:05:48.920
for her, and which even a lot of Catholics still

1146
01:05:48.920 --> 01:05:52.199
deal with to this day. Not to mention the early

1147
01:05:52.239 --> 01:05:55.000
disciples of Jesus Christ when he said, this is my

1148
01:05:55.079 --> 01:05:57.320
body and blood. Unless you eat of my body and

1149
01:05:57.800 --> 01:06:00.159
drink of my blood, then you can have no art

1150
01:06:00.199 --> 01:06:01.960
in the kingdom, and they freaked out. I mean they

1151
01:06:02.000 --> 01:06:06.159
exited stage left. And so here it is an episcopalian. Uh,

1152
01:06:06.960 --> 01:06:11.960
she gets revelation and connects with the reality of the substance,

1153
01:06:12.599 --> 01:06:15.440
not no, you know, not a symbol, because as an

1154
01:06:15.480 --> 01:06:17.880
Episcopalian should have been taught that it was the symbol,

1155
01:06:18.360 --> 01:06:21.280
not the substance of body and the body of Christ.

1156
01:06:21.360 --> 01:06:24.840
Right, yes, that is correct. So it was the substance

1157
01:06:25.000 --> 01:06:28.079
of the real presence that she first encountered at a

1158
01:06:28.199 --> 01:06:33.039
Marian shrine our Lady of Montenero, which is in Tuscany,

1159
01:06:34.239 --> 01:06:38.559
and someone who spoke English, who may have been part

1160
01:06:38.599 --> 01:06:43.239
of their party that day, said at the elevation, that's

1161
01:06:43.280 --> 01:06:46.440
what they call their real presence. She was horrified and

1162
01:06:46.519 --> 01:06:50.440
bent down and said, my Lord and my God. It

1163
01:06:50.599 --> 01:06:53.719
was a moment of insight and faith.

1164
01:06:54.360 --> 01:06:57.280
Yeah, exactly, And that's you know, I got to tell you, sister,

1165
01:06:57.320 --> 01:07:00.599
that has been on my heart a lot here recently.

1166
01:07:01.239 --> 01:07:04.280
And I think it was Saint Augustine who said that

1167
01:07:04.559 --> 01:07:08.039
it starts with faith, you know, and from faith it

1168
01:07:08.480 --> 01:07:12.519
develops into belief, and then with belief it goes to understanding.

1169
01:07:13.320 --> 01:07:17.039
And justin had it, had had it right. And Elizabeth

1170
01:07:17.079 --> 01:07:20.960
Setan was actually born on Saint Augustine's birthday.

1171
01:07:21.360 --> 01:07:23.840
Oh, is that Nettley, our.

1172
01:07:23.719 --> 01:07:26.880
New Holy Father was born on the day that Elizabeth

1173
01:07:26.880 --> 01:07:30.559
Seton was canonized, not the same year, but the day Well,

1174
01:07:30.599 --> 01:07:35.400
of course, yes, no celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of that

1175
01:07:35.480 --> 01:07:41.599
canonization this year. It's really important that she be better

1176
01:07:41.719 --> 01:07:46.719
known as a model for people of today, for contemporary

1177
01:07:46.800 --> 01:07:50.360
men and women, and a person as an intercessor. That's

1178
01:07:50.400 --> 01:07:54.840
what saints are. They're models for Christian living and intercessors

1179
01:07:54.880 --> 01:07:57.519
with God for the needs of the people of God.

1180
01:07:58.199 --> 01:08:01.960
Yeah, because once you really and you get the message

1181
01:08:02.159 --> 01:08:04.880
and you're enlightened with the love of God and mercy

1182
01:08:04.920 --> 01:08:07.559
of God, how do you contain that? How do you

1183
01:08:07.719 --> 01:08:09.480
not want to share that with others?

1184
01:08:10.119 --> 01:08:12.920
Well, she certainly wanted to share it with others, and

1185
01:08:13.480 --> 01:08:17.479
once she was invited to Marilyn to teach. She had

1186
01:08:17.520 --> 01:08:23.760
the insight of teaching girls. Female education was not available

1187
01:08:25.000 --> 01:08:28.159
unless you had lots of money, so she began a

1188
01:08:28.359 --> 01:08:34.079
school in Emminsburg, Saint Joseph's School, to teach young girls

1189
01:08:34.640 --> 01:08:38.760
the faith and the fundamentals of reading, writing and arithmetic.

1190
01:08:39.319 --> 01:08:42.840
And she couldn't made the bills by having a free school,

1191
01:08:43.239 --> 01:08:48.000
so she invited borders, and then borders came and that

1192
01:08:48.159 --> 01:08:52.199
was the income that then supplemented her ministry with the

1193
01:08:52.359 --> 01:08:56.479
Sisteroseph Charity of Saint Joseph's, the community that she founded

1194
01:08:56.840 --> 01:09:01.319
actually based on the rule of Saint Japaal and Luis

1195
01:09:01.399 --> 01:09:05.079
Jamiriak in France, the Daughter's of Purity.

you age, making it harder to fight flu numacacal pneumonia,

1198
01:09:15.039 --> 01:09:18.279

Substance use and mental health often go hands in hand.

1215
01:10:08.399 --> 01:10:11.000
Research shows that teens who struggle with their mental health

1216
01:10:11.159 --> 01:10:14.680
are more likely to use drugs and alcohol. That's why

1217

the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention launch the

1218

1219

youth ages twelve to seventeen. As a parent or caregiver,

1220
01:10:25.039 --> 01:10:27.960
you play a powerful role. Stay connected with your team

1221
01:10:28.039 --> 01:10:30.720
can reduce their risk for drug use. Before you talk

1222
01:10:30.760 --> 01:10:33.359
to them about drugs, talk to them about how they're

1223
01:10:33.359 --> 01:10:35.439
really doing, and remember.

1224
01:10:35.439 --> 01:10:36.399
Empathy is key.

1225
01:10:36.880 --> 01:10:42.199
Ask questions, listen without judgment, lead with compassion. Let them

1226
01:10:42.239 --> 01:10:46.159
know they're not alone, because sometimes an open and honest

1227
01:10:46.199 --> 01:10:49.439

She's an editor, and you served as an editor on

1285
01:13:51.680 --> 01:13:55.640
this book. Saint Elizabeth An Seaton. Right, Yes, well, I

1286
01:13:55.640 --> 01:13:58.680
imagine that you know here you are, you're going through

1287
01:13:58.720 --> 01:14:01.880
this book again is it you reissue it, And like

1288
01:14:02.000 --> 01:14:05.039
so many books that we will read and become familiar with,

1289
01:14:05.279 --> 01:14:07.399
I find it quite interesting that we'll pick it up

1290
01:14:07.640 --> 01:14:09.479
years later and all of a sudden, it's like there's

1291
01:14:09.520 --> 01:14:10.760
some new things that came up.

1292
01:14:11.079 --> 01:14:14.560
So for you was maybe you can share with us.

1293
01:14:14.439 --> 01:14:18.960
Some new discoveries of Saint Elizabeth Ann Seaton that you

1294
01:14:19.079 --> 01:14:20.640
found in reissuing this book.

1295
01:14:21.640 --> 01:14:25.520
It's one of the most significant ones that I came across.

1296
01:14:27.560 --> 01:14:31.600
Based on her experience as a little girl. She wasn't

1297
01:14:31.680 --> 01:14:35.319
born a saint. She was a little girl who was

1298
01:14:35.479 --> 01:14:38.399
aching for her mother. And when she looked up to

1299
01:14:38.479 --> 01:14:40.560
the clouds and said, I want to be up there

1300
01:14:40.560 --> 01:14:44.279
with mother, that wasn't a mysketical experience. It was a

1301
01:14:44.439 --> 01:14:49.640
natural phenomenon of a grieving child. But that grieving child

1302
01:14:50.279 --> 01:14:55.279
threw a woman who knew the experience of grief in

1303
01:14:55.560 --> 01:14:59.039
so many ways more than many people, even having to

1304
01:14:59.119 --> 01:15:03.560
bury her her husband, who were her daughters. So she's

1305
01:15:03.600 --> 01:15:04.840
the woman who.

1306
01:15:05.239 --> 01:15:05.680
For me.

1307
01:15:07.840 --> 01:15:14.720
Resonates hope in the resurrection, hope in life eternal. She

1308
01:15:14.880 --> 01:15:20.039
knew how to or she learned how to overcome and

1309
01:15:20.079 --> 01:15:26.079
look beyond to the reality that God is in charge

1310
01:15:26.359 --> 01:15:30.119
and God is leading. That was her path. Her path

1311
01:15:30.159 --> 01:15:33.680
of faith was to do the will of God and

1312
01:15:33.760 --> 01:15:37.720
to follow the events of the day seeing the hand

1313
01:15:37.760 --> 01:15:38.600
of God in it.

1314
01:15:39.680 --> 01:15:40.479
Yeah, you know.

1315
01:15:40.600 --> 01:15:43.319
In hearing you talk, I have a sense that she

1316
01:15:43.439 --> 01:15:46.640
was a woman of many sorrows, and with the sorrows

1317
01:15:46.720 --> 01:15:47.560
was blessings.

1318
01:15:48.880 --> 01:15:52.439
Yes, she did not have the blessing of faith, of

1319
01:15:52.720 --> 01:15:55.760
pardon me, of health, but she did have the blessing

1320
01:15:55.840 --> 01:15:59.439
of faith and friendship. She was a woman who was

1321
01:15:59.680 --> 01:16:04.119
very relational and she had some lifelong friends, some lady

1322
01:16:04.199 --> 01:16:08.920
friends that the correspondents were fortunate to have because we

1323
01:16:09.000 --> 01:16:13.720
can trace the development of the relationship. Yet she really

1324
01:16:13.760 --> 01:16:18.000
did try to convert them, effected who they were and

1325
01:16:18.079 --> 01:16:23.439
what their faith was and their belief. She was able,

1326
01:16:24.239 --> 01:16:28.560
with the help of spiritual direction in Father Simon Brute,

1327
01:16:29.239 --> 01:16:34.399
to overcome the deep, deep grief of the loss of

1328
01:16:34.479 --> 01:16:42.039
her oldest child. And my sense in reading her words

1329
01:16:42.600 --> 01:16:46.840
and her writing, which shifts with her mood sometimes is

1330
01:16:46.880 --> 01:16:52.119
that she held a lot of accumulated grief over the

1331
01:16:52.239 --> 01:16:57.520
years that just built up and just overwhelmed her when

1332
01:16:57.640 --> 01:17:01.439
her oldest daughter, a Nina died, and only with the

1333
01:17:01.560 --> 01:17:07.039
help of support and prayer and grace. Was she able

1334
01:17:07.119 --> 01:17:13.279
to let go and be become free of that burden?

1335
01:17:14.439 --> 01:17:18.000
You know, sister you mentioned this yearning in her heart

1336
01:17:18.079 --> 01:17:21.239
for healing. It reminds me of Paul, who talked about

1337
01:17:21.239 --> 01:17:24.319
that thorn right that he asked God on several occasions,

1338
01:17:24.319 --> 01:17:27.319
can you take it away? And God said, that's okay.

1339
01:17:27.520 --> 01:17:31.920
You know my strength. Your weakness is manifest in my strength.

1340
01:17:32.439 --> 01:17:37.119
And it took Paul, the Apostle, Paul, Saint Paul, time

1341
01:17:37.239 --> 01:17:41.600
to embrace that thorn and to see it. Do you

1342
01:17:41.680 --> 01:17:46.960
think that Saint Elizabeth embraced her her lack of healing

1343
01:17:47.079 --> 01:17:50.880
or maybe, you know, maybe the frustration that here it

1344
01:17:50.960 --> 01:17:54.079
is a woman of faith and so many things around

1345
01:17:54.119 --> 01:17:57.279
her that are you know, just miraculous, that are recurring,

1346
01:17:57.600 --> 01:18:00.000
and she's going, why can't I be healed?

1347
01:18:00.159 --> 01:18:00.399
God?

1348
01:18:02.560 --> 01:18:05.680
Perhaps she saw her way to salvation as a way

1349
01:18:05.680 --> 01:18:10.560
of the Cross, and even as a young teenager she

1350
01:18:10.640 --> 01:18:14.720
went through what I would consider an adolescent depression and

1351
01:18:14.800 --> 01:18:19.800
considered taking loud and known whige is an opium derivative.

1352
01:18:21.159 --> 01:18:26.520
Today we'd say taking drugs. She writes after the incident,

1353
01:18:27.720 --> 01:18:32.119
so grateful for not having done the horrid deed, So

1354
01:18:32.159 --> 01:18:37.359
how often do we think about a saint with suicidal ideation, right,

1355
01:18:37.479 --> 01:18:40.279
of course, but the grace and the strength this is

1356
01:18:40.319 --> 01:18:45.920
as a young adolescent and Episcopalian girl, she knew that

1357
01:18:45.960 --> 01:18:48.520
what was right and what was wrong and whatever she

1358
01:18:48.720 --> 01:18:52.600
was so upset about, she got the guts and courage

1359
01:18:52.640 --> 01:18:56.920
to say no and move forward, which helped her I

1360
01:18:56.960 --> 01:19:01.479
think understand the hys and of some of her children,

1361
01:19:02.000 --> 01:19:07.840
her boy frequently kind of disappointed her. They were not

1362
01:19:08.159 --> 01:19:12.760
as responsible is not the right word, but she would

1363
01:19:12.800 --> 01:19:14.760
like one of them to have been a priest. She

1364
01:19:14.800 --> 01:19:17.359
would have liked another to have done this and that,

1365
01:19:17.720 --> 01:19:21.720
but they both wanted to be sailing on the seas

1366
01:19:22.119 --> 01:19:26.920
and her her oldest son did become a lieutenant in

1367
01:19:26.960 --> 01:19:33.279
the navy and the younger one a clerk civil US

1368
01:19:33.319 --> 01:19:36.399
Civil Service clerk to a captain on a ship. But

1369
01:19:36.520 --> 01:19:42.000
he lossed his life by ministering to someone with typhoid

1370
01:19:43.000 --> 01:19:50.479
at the port of a court in Africa, Liberia. Right,

1371
01:19:51.199 --> 01:19:56.760
so an active charity brought him to heaven exactly. Her

1372
01:19:57.439 --> 01:20:03.600
surviving daughter, midlife, after touring Europe with her brother, etc.

1373
01:20:04.640 --> 01:20:07.279
Decided she would like to be a Sister of Mercy

1374
01:20:07.479 --> 01:20:11.560
and became the first American postulant for the Sisters of

1375
01:20:11.680 --> 01:20:15.600
Mercy of New York and spent forty five years in

1376
01:20:15.720 --> 01:20:17.960
prison ministry at sing Sing.

1377
01:20:18.920 --> 01:20:19.119
Mmm.

1378
01:20:19.640 --> 01:20:23.880
Wow, what a story, well quite a life.

1379
01:20:24.159 --> 01:20:28.199
Yeah, exactly, And I wanted to, you know, we got

1380
01:20:28.199 --> 01:20:30.439
a couple of minutes left here, but I really wanted

1381
01:20:30.479 --> 01:20:34.000
to talk more about her devotion for the will of God.

1382
01:20:35.159 --> 01:20:37.960
That was something that was with her from the beginning.

1383
01:20:38.720 --> 01:20:41.159
In my opinion, the roots of her faith were with

1384
01:20:41.239 --> 01:20:45.119
the Episcopal Church, and she was well schooled in the

1385
01:20:45.159 --> 01:20:49.920
Bible and did a lot of scripture reading. She knew

1386
01:20:49.960 --> 01:20:54.239
that God's will was guiding her, and she wanted to

1387
01:20:54.439 --> 01:20:58.359
do God's will. She wanted to be an obedient servant

1388
01:20:58.399 --> 01:21:02.960
you make saying, and she went to acquiesce to God's

1389
01:21:03.079 --> 01:21:06.479
will and coming to Maryland, she had a sense this

1390
01:21:06.680 --> 01:21:10.239
was part of God's plan and whether it succeeded or

1391
01:21:10.279 --> 01:21:13.439
it didn't succeed, it was God's plan and it would

1392
01:21:13.520 --> 01:21:15.800
evolve according to divine providence.

1393
01:21:16.439 --> 01:21:16.960
Exactly.

1394
01:21:18.239 --> 01:21:21.439
This year is her fiftieth anniversary. You mentioned of her

1395
01:21:21.439 --> 01:21:25.920
canonization on September fourteenth, and which happens to be a Sunday,

1396
01:21:25.960 --> 01:21:26.359
which is.

1397
01:21:26.319 --> 01:21:32.840
Great there Originally well congratulations, So it's going to be

1398
01:21:33.159 --> 01:21:36.720
a real blessing to you know, enjoy the fiftieth year.

1399
01:21:36.720 --> 01:21:39.640
What kind of plans are set for this special event?

1400
01:21:39.960 --> 01:21:42.840
The National Shrine of Saint Elizabeth van Seaton has some

1401
01:21:43.239 --> 01:21:53.039
weekends of celebrations including concerts, liturgical experiences, family events. It's

1402
01:21:53.159 --> 01:21:56.880
like one thing after another Saturday through Sunday the weekend

1403
01:21:56.960 --> 01:22:01.159
of September fourteenth, and it's all posted outlined on their

1404
01:22:01.199 --> 01:22:03.760
website trying dot org.

1405
01:22:04.680 --> 01:22:09.479
And I'm sure there will be a corporate reading of

1406
01:22:09.560 --> 01:22:10.520
song twenty three.

1407
01:22:11.039 --> 01:22:12.800
I would expect that there will be.

1408
01:22:13.199 --> 01:22:13.479
Yes.

1409
01:22:13.600 --> 01:22:17.239
No, I love that song, and I can appreciate how

1410
01:22:18.159 --> 01:22:20.960
how she grew attached to that because as you break

1411
01:22:21.000 --> 01:22:24.600
that psalm down, it is it tells you the character

1412
01:22:24.880 --> 01:22:28.239
of who God is. Yes, you know all his names,

1413
01:22:28.439 --> 01:22:30.840
not all his names, but many of his names that

1414
01:22:30.920 --> 01:22:32.880
she certainly could relate to.

1415
01:22:33.359 --> 01:22:36.840
Yes, Yes, she had many names for God, and she

1416
01:22:37.000 --> 01:22:39.880
had nicknames for lots of people, even the devil she

1417
01:22:40.000 --> 01:22:40.680
calls Sam.

1418
01:22:41.720 --> 01:22:43.920
You called him Sam Sam, the devil?

1419
01:22:44.039 --> 01:22:44.600
Huh.

1420
01:22:44.760 --> 01:22:50.039
She was very creative, very creative, and had a sarcastic,

1421
01:22:50.399 --> 01:22:54.479
humorous twist to many things. Irony was something that she

1422
01:22:54.520 --> 01:22:59.079
could use quite effectively with the students and with her friends.

1423
01:22:59.479 --> 01:23:02.279
Well, I've got to use Sam going forward now, now

1424
01:23:02.520 --> 01:23:07.319
you've shared that with me, Sister Betty and McNeil. She's

1425
01:23:07.399 --> 01:23:12.600
with the Daughters of Charity. She's also with Ignacious Publishing

1426
01:23:12.640 --> 01:23:15.600
as well. She serves as the editor for Saint Elizabeth

1427
01:23:15.720 --> 01:23:18.720
and seton the book available at all the usual places.

1428
01:23:18.720 --> 01:23:22.399
Sister, Yes, yes, And the full title is Saint Elizabeth

1429
01:23:22.439 --> 01:23:27.000
Dan's Seaton a Spiritual Portrait. This is not a biography.

1430
01:23:27.479 --> 01:23:32.359
It's a spiritual portrait of how she became who she

1431
01:23:32.479 --> 01:23:37.960
became in God's eyes today, a model and an intercessor

1432
01:23:38.319 --> 01:23:40.399
for all of us around the world.

1433
01:23:41.039 --> 01:23:44.159
Well today, Saint Elizabeth an Seaton continues to bless us,

1434
01:23:44.520 --> 01:23:46.720
and Sister, thank you for blessing us, for coming on

1435
01:23:46.760 --> 01:23:50.039
the show and sharing the story in this book that

1436
01:23:50.199 --> 01:23:52.840
is a new release at a time such as this,

1437
01:23:53.000 --> 01:23:54.079
I think it's perfect timing.

1438
01:23:54.560 --> 01:23:57.800
Well, you're very welcome. I always love to talk about

1439
01:23:58.079 --> 01:24:00.880
our favorite lady who was a s of the world.

1440
01:24:01.920 --> 01:24:02.920
She called herself that.

1441
01:24:04.000 --> 01:24:05.920
I'm gonna give you the last word on that, Sister.

1442
01:24:06.000 --> 01:24:08.399
Thank you so much, God, bless God, blessed.

1443
01:24:08.439 --> 01:24:08.800
Take care.

1444
01:24:09.800 --> 01:24:11.880
I get so many headaches every month.

1445
01:24:12.159 --> 01:24:14.880
It could be chronic migraine fifteen or more headache days

1446
01:24:14.880 --> 01:24:16.960
a month, each lasting four hours or more.

1447
01:24:17.399 --> 01:24:21.960
Botox autobotulinum toxin A prevents headaches and adults with chronic migraine.

1448
01:24:22.000 --> 01:24:24.119
It's not for those who have fourteen or fewer headache

1449
01:24:24.199 --> 01:24:27.159
days a month. Prescription botox is injected by your doctor.

1450
01:24:27.199 --> 01:24:29.800
Effects of botox may spread hours to weeks after injection,

1451
01:24:29.920 --> 01:24:34.319
causing serious symptoms. Alert your doctor right away, as difficulties swallowing, speaking, breathing,

1452
01:24:34.359 --> 01:24:36.399
eye problems, or muscle weakness can be signs of a

1453
01:24:36.439 --> 01:24:39.439
life threatening condition. Patients with these conditions before injection are

1454
01:24:39.439 --> 01:24:42.359
at highest risks. Side Effects may include allergic reactions, neck

1455
01:24:42.399 --> 01:24:45.479
and injection site pain, fatigue, and headache. Allergic reactions can

1456
01:24:45.479 --> 01:24:48.880
include rash, welts, asthma symptoms, and dizziness. Don't receive botox

1457
01:24:48.880 --> 01:24:51.399
if there's a skin infection. Tell your doctor your medical history,

1458
01:24:51.479 --> 01:24:55.279
muscle or nerve conditions including als Lukeerrig's disease, Myasthenia gravis

1459
01:24:55.399 --> 01:24:58.960
or Lambert Eaton syndrome, and medications including botulinum toxins, as

1460
01:24:58.960 --> 01:25:01.319
these may increase the risk serious side effects.

1461
01:25:01.720 --> 01:25:05.600

1509
01:27:46.119 --> 01:27:48.199
Hey, good morning, and welcome Bill Martinez here along with

1510
01:27:48.279 --> 01:27:53.159
Jeff Camp, the author of reci also former nfl QBN

1511
01:27:53.239 --> 01:27:53.840
ministry leader.

1512
01:27:53.880 --> 01:27:56.159
Hey, mister Jeff, how you doing good? Bill?

1513
01:27:56.439 --> 01:27:59.039
I like to remember that I am Stacy's husband, the

1514
01:27:59.079 --> 01:28:02.039
father of a bunch of good boys and their wives

1515
01:28:02.079 --> 01:28:03.960
and some grandkids, and at the end of the day,

1516
01:28:04.039 --> 01:28:06.039
like you, I'm a son of a perfect dad.

1517
01:28:06.279 --> 01:28:06.680
Amen.

1518
01:28:06.800 --> 01:28:08.920
Huh, and we're so blessed.

1519
01:28:09.039 --> 01:28:11.399
I'll tell you you know, I was just reading Jeff,

1520
01:28:11.560 --> 01:28:12.640
and I thought about you.

1521
01:28:13.039 --> 01:28:14.079
This stuck out.

1522
01:28:14.119 --> 01:28:18.640
George Barna had reported that young kids are coming back

1523
01:28:18.680 --> 01:28:23.479
to Jesus in droves. I think this is an exciting

1524
01:28:24.680 --> 01:28:29.119
momentum shift that's been taking place because there had been

1525
01:28:29.720 --> 01:28:33.359
a down trend, you know, almost a decade ago, but

1526
01:28:33.439 --> 01:28:38.399
it's slowly but surely has been increasing, especially since COVID

1527
01:28:39.039 --> 01:28:42.840
and what I have been sounding. The alarm to church

1528
01:28:42.960 --> 01:28:47.880
leaders and influencers of the faith is that we need

1529
01:28:47.920 --> 01:28:52.039
to be aware to be positioned in such a way

1530
01:28:52.119 --> 01:28:57.199
to catch that resurgence, so to speak, so that we

1531
01:28:57.279 --> 01:28:59.960
can be there. You know, you talk about level five friendship.

1532
01:29:00.439 --> 01:29:02.720
I'm thinking, Hey, maybe we need to talk about level

1533
01:29:02.840 --> 01:29:05.039
five discipleship for these young kids.

1534
01:29:05.119 --> 01:29:07.760
What do you think, well, I think you're What you're

1535
01:29:07.760 --> 01:29:12.119
saying is when this young generation starts to find the

1536
01:29:12.239 --> 01:29:15.720
end of the rope on the culture's answers yes, and

1537
01:29:15.760 --> 01:29:19.880
the emptiness and the confusion. Obviously COVID led to a

1538
01:29:19.920 --> 01:29:24.720
lot of loneliness, and that made people kind of look

1539
01:29:24.840 --> 01:29:29.640
deep because their soul wasn't satisfied. The church needs to

1540
01:29:29.680 --> 01:29:33.239
be ready to meet them where they are, but say

1541
01:29:33.279 --> 01:29:37.600
that we're here to show you what the Bible says

1542
01:29:38.239 --> 01:29:40.720
and to study it with you and not presume anything.

1543
01:29:41.279 --> 01:29:47.800
I think teaching classes, having dialogue discussions, making older folks

1544
01:29:47.880 --> 01:29:49.800
that have been the faith for a while available as

1545
01:29:49.840 --> 01:29:53.520
mentors for visits over coffee and such. I think a

1546
01:29:53.520 --> 01:29:55.720
lot of young people are going to want those type

1547
01:29:55.760 --> 01:30:01.880
of conversations. Of course, biblical teaching right, young people don't need,

1548
01:30:02.720 --> 01:30:05.880
you know, a whole bunch more culture commentary. They need

1549
01:30:05.960 --> 01:30:08.359
what Jesus said, and I think that's quickly coming back

1550
01:30:08.399 --> 01:30:11.720
to is the actual God in the words that God

1551
01:30:11.800 --> 01:30:16.279
himself gave in the Bible. The Bible is fresh, The

1552
01:30:16.319 --> 01:30:18.239
truth doesn't need to be defended. It needs to be

1553
01:30:18.279 --> 01:30:23.159
presented right, but obviously with a spirit of humility that

1554
01:30:23.439 --> 01:30:26.000
none of us brag about our knowledge of the Bible

1555
01:30:26.039 --> 01:30:27.079
or our ability to carry it.

1556
01:30:27.039 --> 01:30:30.520
Out exactly well, because it's all about Jesus high and

1557
01:30:30.520 --> 01:30:34.319
lifted up right. And this is we've gone through an

1558
01:30:34.359 --> 01:30:38.319
age of where there's been performance and celebrity pastors and

1559
01:30:38.399 --> 01:30:42.319
that sort of thing. And I think that's what you know,

1560
01:30:42.359 --> 01:30:45.880
some of the previous generations have rejected and they're looking

1561
01:30:45.920 --> 01:30:47.960
for and you said it was absolutely key, is that

1562
01:30:48.319 --> 01:30:52.159
where's the word of God in this and it's scripture based.

1563
01:30:52.319 --> 01:30:54.600
I can't help but think of what Chuck Smith did.

1564
01:30:55.119 --> 01:30:57.359
In fact, there was a movie about it, you know,

1565
01:30:57.439 --> 01:31:01.000
about the Jesus Revolution and what took place there at

1566
01:31:01.039 --> 01:31:03.039
Calvary and coast to Mesa. I happened to be in

1567
01:31:03.079 --> 01:31:06.439
that area at the time and was in the periphery

1568
01:31:06.479 --> 01:31:08.319
of it and then and then came close. But I

1569
01:31:08.399 --> 01:31:12.199
was after a lot of this stuff had happened there

1570
01:31:12.239 --> 01:31:16.359
that put Calvary through this major transition because they were,

1571
01:31:16.600 --> 01:31:17.680
you know, traditionalists.

1572
01:31:18.800 --> 01:31:20.760
You know, they just put new carpet.

1573
01:31:21.159 --> 01:31:24.880
In the sanctuary, and then all of a sudden you

1574
01:31:25.000 --> 01:31:29.359
had an individual who was a lightning rod that told

1575
01:31:29.720 --> 01:31:32.720
all these hippies, hey, you could be welcomed at this church.

1576
01:31:33.359 --> 01:31:36.920
And so they came there with their bare feet and

1577
01:31:37.239 --> 01:31:39.800
the elders were freaking out because, you know, you had

1578
01:31:39.840 --> 01:31:41.600
bare feet on their new rug.

1579
01:31:41.720 --> 01:31:43.000
And that was an imposition.

1580
01:31:43.680 --> 01:31:48.560
And fortunately Chuck Smith, pastor Chuck Smith, who was probably

1581
01:31:48.880 --> 01:31:51.159
the least likely that you would say, how is Chuck

1582
01:31:51.199 --> 01:31:54.840
Smith going to relate to all these hippies, Yeah he was.

1583
01:31:55.000 --> 01:32:00.359
He was more of a traditional Baptist conservative.

1584
01:31:59.840 --> 01:31:59.920
The.

1585
01:32:01.520 --> 01:32:05.800
Trappings of the external parts of Christian culture, not necessarily

1586
01:32:05.920 --> 01:32:09.760
Christian behavior. And it was his daughter said, Dad, you

1587
01:32:09.800 --> 01:32:12.279
want your church to grow, but you're rejecting the people

1588
01:32:12.359 --> 01:32:14.920
that God is sending. You got to welcome them, You

1589
01:32:15.000 --> 01:32:17.880
got to open up. And he was convicted by listening

1590
01:32:17.960 --> 01:32:22.239
to his daughter, right and realized, yeah, am I trying

1591
01:32:22.239 --> 01:32:26.479
to protect the carpet and the opinions of this older generation,

1592
01:32:26.640 --> 01:32:30.479
stodgy elders or am I trying to give these people

1593
01:32:30.479 --> 01:32:32.600
what God wants to give them, which is a welcome

1594
01:32:33.199 --> 01:32:35.760
and be the truth of Jesus found in the Word

1595
01:32:35.760 --> 01:32:39.119
of God. And my gosh, what a revolution took place.

1596
01:32:39.159 --> 01:32:42.199
That's where we are today. Let's take the trappings away,

1597
01:32:44.000 --> 01:32:47.359
and let's make the bridge a little bit wider, be

1598
01:32:47.399 --> 01:32:49.479
able to come and hear the word of God, hear

1599
01:32:49.520 --> 01:32:53.399
the direct truth. Don't water down the message one iota,

1600
01:32:53.920 --> 01:32:57.119
but don't add any extra stuff to it, like, oh,

1601
01:32:57.159 --> 01:32:59.359
you better get baptized before you come, you better join

1602
01:32:59.399 --> 01:33:02.479
the church, have a tie, you better wear shoes when

1603
01:33:02.520 --> 01:33:04.920
you show up at this church. You got to clean

1604
01:33:05.000 --> 01:33:07.199
up your act. You know, you can't have done anything

1605
01:33:07.239 --> 01:33:11.239
wrong this week before you come to church. No, Jesus

1606
01:33:11.319 --> 01:33:13.680
didn't do that with the prostitute, or the tax collector,

1607
01:33:14.159 --> 01:33:16.000
or the lame or lepers.

1608
01:33:16.199 --> 01:33:16.399
You know.

1609
01:33:16.640 --> 01:33:19.079
He hugged the lepers who no one else would hug.

1610
01:33:19.399 --> 01:33:22.479
He hung out with the tax collector, who everyone else hated.

1611
01:33:23.800 --> 01:33:27.439
He welcomed the prostitute who didn't like her life and

1612
01:33:27.479 --> 01:33:29.840
wanted it to change, but didn't know how until she

1613
01:33:29.960 --> 01:33:32.439
found grace. And that's what he presented.

1614
01:33:32.520 --> 01:33:36.000
Exactly well, again the opportunities here. And these young kids

1615
01:33:36.039 --> 01:33:40.199
are looking, Jeff, and one of the things that they're

1616
01:33:40.359 --> 01:33:45.680
recoiling against is the tradition religion and church. They don't

1617
01:33:45.720 --> 01:33:49.640
so much identify with the specific religion, but they identify

1618
01:33:49.720 --> 01:33:53.039
with Christ to exactly what you're saying. So if we

1619
01:33:53.119 --> 01:33:56.880
lift him up and do so in a manner that's

1620
01:33:56.920 --> 01:34:02.319
not ideological to a specific religion, then we can capture

1621
01:34:02.800 --> 01:34:05.680
these souls, because as the Bible says, he who wins

1622
01:34:05.760 --> 01:34:08.880
souls is the one that gains much right in so

1623
01:34:09.000 --> 01:34:10.079
many words.

1624
01:34:09.960 --> 01:34:12.439
Oh exactly, And I don't think anyone should hear us

1625
01:34:13.319 --> 01:34:18.279
talking about get rid of traditional religion as the first thing,

1626
01:34:18.399 --> 01:34:20.319
and make Jesus the first thing. We're not saying to

1627
01:34:20.319 --> 01:34:23.680
get rid of church. We're respecting church. We need church,

1628
01:34:24.319 --> 01:34:27.000
you know. C. S. Lewis talked about we need to

1629
01:34:27.039 --> 01:34:30.479
make the hallway easy to get into where people can

1630
01:34:30.520 --> 01:34:34.479
find faith. And then there are many doors, right and

1631
01:34:34.600 --> 01:34:39.920
churches which attract people of certain styles. There's Presbyterian churches,

1632
01:34:39.920 --> 01:34:44.000
there's four square churches, there's charismatic ones, there's Catholic churches,

1633
01:34:44.880 --> 01:34:48.680
there's the Methodists that you know, we have an awful

1634
01:34:48.720 --> 01:34:52.960
lot of flavors to ice cream. In the Protestant World bill,

1635
01:34:53.760 --> 01:34:58.760
there's different style Catholic, there's Anglican, there's Greek Orthodox. Those

1636
01:34:58.840 --> 01:35:02.520
are fine, and people will find they'll step out of

1637
01:35:02.560 --> 01:35:06.279
the hallway into a door into a particular church, and

1638
01:35:06.319 --> 01:35:10.479
they'll find people there and guess what people are imperfect okay.

1639
01:35:10.680 --> 01:35:14.159
And secondly, the theology and the practice that the church

1640
01:35:14.520 --> 01:35:18.159
has practiced has some imperfections or maybe won't meet every

1641
01:35:18.159 --> 01:35:22.039
one of your tastes. That's okay. It gets perfected in heaven.

1642
01:35:23.159 --> 01:35:29.159
But in the hallway is come find Jesus. Read the

1643
01:35:29.279 --> 01:35:32.880
essence of this Bible. You were God's child who ran

1644
01:35:32.920 --> 01:35:35.720
away from him. He solved it by coming to earth

1645
01:35:36.279 --> 01:35:40.800
in Jesus and in humility paid the punishment for people's rebellion.

1646
01:35:41.199 --> 01:35:43.479
He welcomed you back to the Father. Now you get

1647
01:35:43.520 --> 01:35:46.800
to live a relationship with Him and a kingdom life

1648
01:35:46.800 --> 01:35:49.600
that lasts forever. But it's done in community. So step

1649
01:35:49.640 --> 01:35:51.800
into one of those doors, get in a small group,

1650
01:35:52.279 --> 01:35:55.199
get in a Bible study, go to a church. Don't

1651
01:35:55.239 --> 01:35:58.199
just sit there like a consumer and listen to the

1652
01:35:58.239 --> 01:36:00.279
music and listen to sermon. Get out of there, or

1653
01:36:00.319 --> 01:36:03.279
critique it, which is even worse, be a part of it.

1654
01:36:03.560 --> 01:36:07.159
Volunteer at study school class, help with the junior hires,

1655
01:36:08.159 --> 01:36:11.119
you know, do the feeding program that they do for

1656
01:36:11.159 --> 01:36:14.079
the poor, help with the single mom ministry, our special

1657
01:36:14.119 --> 01:36:18.199
needs ministry like my church has. So anyway, we're talking

1658
01:36:18.239 --> 01:36:22.960
about church is good. Religion that appiles too much stuff

1659
01:36:22.960 --> 01:36:25.319
on people, that keeps them from true Jesus and grace.

1660
01:36:25.560 --> 01:36:27.640
That's not good, right exactly.

1661
01:36:27.880 --> 01:36:31.760
Well, again, the opportunity is there, and our prayer is

1662
01:36:31.800 --> 01:36:36.520
that church leadership would connoiter and come together and seek

1663
01:36:36.600 --> 01:36:39.720
God's face right now, say God, you're doing something here.

1664
01:36:40.119 --> 01:36:41.319
How do we get in front of this?

1665
01:36:41.439 --> 01:36:45.439
What do we need to do to maybe.

1666
01:36:45.199 --> 01:36:50.079
Recalibrate and take a look at what we're presenting. What's

1667
01:36:50.119 --> 01:36:53.520
our brand here? Have we compromised the brand? Do we

1668
01:36:53.600 --> 01:36:59.000
need to you know, re engage with first principles, you know,

1669
01:36:59.119 --> 01:37:03.760
all these important questions that are done at a leadership level,

1670
01:37:04.079 --> 01:37:09.319
and that can be you know, reintroduced down line with

1671
01:37:10.039 --> 01:37:13.239
the rest of the people at the church, because if

1672
01:37:13.239 --> 01:37:15.439
it is a church, it's a building and stuff like that.

1673
01:37:15.800 --> 01:37:17.880
You get, you know, people that.

1674
01:37:17.840 --> 01:37:21.479
Get a little anxious when you know their favorite seat

1675
01:37:21.520 --> 01:37:24.800
in the pew is being occupied by a new person.

1676
01:37:24.920 --> 01:37:30.960
Right, It's not as complicated as it could sound. If

1677
01:37:31.000 --> 01:37:35.399
we keep Jesus at the core and we say this

1678
01:37:35.479 --> 01:37:37.279
is a place where people are welcome to come and

1679
01:37:37.319 --> 01:37:42.159
find Jesus, know Jesus, and be disciples in a relationship

1680
01:37:42.159 --> 01:37:45.199
with Jesus so they can be an ambassador to represent

1681
01:37:45.279 --> 01:37:47.960
him to others, which is done at work in neighborhood

1682
01:37:47.960 --> 01:37:53.079
and little league and wherever exactly. Then we recalibrate in

1683
01:37:53.119 --> 01:37:56.119
a way that lessens some of the rules in tradition

1684
01:37:57.199 --> 01:38:00.680
but keeps the focus on Jesus. It's not very complicated,

1685
01:38:01.319 --> 01:38:04.840
and that'll make the bridge wider for the young person

1686
01:38:04.880 --> 01:38:07.279
of today who saying, I need to find something true.

1687
01:38:07.600 --> 01:38:09.760
Is the Bible true? I need to find a source

1688
01:38:09.760 --> 01:38:14.399
of love that is not conditional. Is Jesus that well,

1689
01:38:14.880 --> 01:38:17.199
come to our church, and you'll see when we read

1690
01:38:17.199 --> 01:38:20.039
the Book of John and we talk about the Book

1691
01:38:20.079 --> 01:38:23.640
of Isaiah, and we read all the psalms that Jesus

1692
01:38:23.760 --> 01:38:28.279
quoted NonStop during the gospel record record of his life,

1693
01:38:28.880 --> 01:38:31.600
you'll see that Jesus is this answer. God has come.

1694
01:38:31.720 --> 01:38:34.560
He has solved that he is personal and we could

1695
01:38:34.600 --> 01:38:37.920
have a revival, but it takes humility, and it takes repentance.

1696
01:38:38.319 --> 01:38:40.319
And that's just on the part of those who don't

1697
01:38:40.359 --> 01:38:43.199
know God yet, it's also on the part of those

1698
01:38:43.279 --> 01:38:47.000
of us who do, and perhaps those in leadership who

1699
01:38:47.000 --> 01:38:48.279
need to be ready for a new era.

1700
01:38:48.760 --> 01:38:51.039
Well, these young people are seeking, Jeff, I pray that

1701
01:38:51.079 --> 01:38:55.199
we be prepared and we direct them appropriately. Like you say,

1702
01:38:55.840 --> 01:38:59.159
Jesus high and lifted up where he deserves to be.

1703
01:39:00.159 --> 01:39:01.960
Jeff Camp, As always, I appreciate you.

1704
01:39:02.000 --> 01:39:03.479
Thanks you ver so much for being with us. Take care,

1705
01:39:03.520 --> 01:39:04.359
God bless my friend.

1706
01:39:05.439 --> 01:39:07.920
Chronic migraine is fifteen or more headache days a month,

1707
01:39:07.960 --> 01:39:09.880
each lasting four hours or more.

Botox on a botulinum toxin A prevents headaches and adults

1709
01:39:13.720 --> 01:39:16.399
with chronic migraine before they start. It's not for those

1710
01:39:16.399 --> 01:39:18.800
with fourteen or fewer headache days a month. It prevents

1711
01:39:18.800 --> 01:39:21.279
on average, eight to nine headache days a month versus

1712
01:39:21.359 --> 01:39:23.560
six to seven for placebo prescription.

1713
01:39:23.640 --> 01:39:25.159
Botox is injected by your doctor.

1714
01:39:25.159 --> 01:39:27.720
Effects of botox may spread hours to weeks after injection,

1715
01:39:27.840 --> 01:39:32.159
causing serious symptoms. Alert your doctor right away, as difficulties swallowing, speaking, breathing,

1716
01:39:32.199 --> 01:39:34.239
eye problems, or muscle weakness can be signs of a

1717
01:39:34.279 --> 01:39:37.279
life threatening condition. Patients with these conditions before injection are

1718
01:39:37.279 --> 01:39:40.159
at highest risks. Side Effects may include allergic reactions, neck

1719
01:39:40.199 --> 01:39:43.239
and injection site pain, fatigue, and headache. Allergic reactions can

1720
01:39:43.279 --> 01:39:46.640
include rash, welts, asthma symptoms and dizzinests. Don't receive botox

1721
01:39:46.640 --> 01:39:49.119
if there's a skin infection. Tell your doctor your medical history,

1722
01:39:49.199 --> 01:39:53.000
muscle or nerve conditions including als, Lugeric's disease, Myasthenia gravis

1723
01:39:53.079 --> 01:39:56.600
or Lambert Eaton syndrome, and medications including botchulinum toxins, as

1724
01:39:56.640 --> 01:39:58.840
these may increase the risk of serious side effects.

Hey Paul, good morning to you.

Good morning Bill. Good to see you.

1784
01:43:20.199 --> 01:43:21.159
Hey, great you.

1785
01:43:21.319 --> 01:43:24.239
It's been way too long since last week. Talked by

1786
01:43:24.279 --> 01:43:27.279
the way, ladies. John Paul is, the vice president of Communications,

1787
01:43:27.640 --> 01:43:31.800
serves as a corporate spokesperson for the ministry responsible it's

1788
01:43:31.840 --> 01:43:34.399
all his fault for media relations, and editor in chief

1789
01:43:34.399 --> 01:43:38.640
of The Daily Citizen, the organization's digital Christian news outlets.

1790
01:43:38.680 --> 01:43:41.560
So now we've got that, so people know that you're

1791
01:43:41.600 --> 01:43:43.000
all that in a bag of chips.

1792
01:43:42.800 --> 01:43:46.039
Right, Guilty is charged, but certainly not all that.

1793
01:43:46.159 --> 01:43:48.920
Yeah, yeah, well, look at it's an honor to have

1794
01:43:49.000 --> 01:43:51.960
you here with us to talk about things that are

1795
01:43:52.000 --> 01:43:56.680
getting lost in translation from the generations, and that is.

1796
01:43:58.399 --> 01:44:00.479
Manners. I mean, who right?

1797
01:44:00.680 --> 01:44:04.239
And there just seems to be an increasing annoyance and

1798
01:44:04.359 --> 01:44:08.479
observation of a lack of manners in our civil society.

1799
01:44:08.479 --> 01:44:09.399
What's going on here?

1800
01:44:09.920 --> 01:44:12.800
Yeah, there's a corrosiveness that's evident to everybody. I mean,

1801
01:44:12.840 --> 01:44:14.880
if you pay attention for five minutes, you see it.

1802
01:44:14.920 --> 01:44:18.239
Whether you're at the grocery store, you're out of your

1803
01:44:18.640 --> 01:44:21.239
place of employment. Certainly, if you watch on or if

1804
01:44:21.239 --> 01:44:24.239
you're online, you see it, and I think that's probably

1805
01:44:24.279 --> 01:44:28.319
accelerated it. You know, online, these people operate in anonymity.

1806
01:44:28.760 --> 01:44:32.199
They feel as though there's no accountability, and so they

1807
01:44:32.319 --> 01:44:35.399
just have let all standards, it seems, go. And I

1808
01:44:35.439 --> 01:44:38.680
think ultimately it comes down to parents. You know, we

1809
01:44:39.119 --> 01:44:42.680
may not be able to corral some of the older folks,

1810
01:44:42.720 --> 01:44:45.079
but we can certainly do what we can do with

1811
01:44:45.119 --> 01:44:47.239
our own kids, and that begins in the home.

1812
01:44:48.079 --> 01:44:51.640
Well, Paul, certainly parents are the first example, no doubt

1813
01:44:51.680 --> 01:44:55.960
about it. But you watch TV and politics has gotten

1814
01:44:56.239 --> 01:44:59.920
very corrosive and abrasive. The language is being used now.

1815
01:45:00.720 --> 01:45:04.720
It's absolutely common for one party over another to just

1816
01:45:05.520 --> 01:45:06.359
go into a.

1817
01:45:08.239 --> 01:45:10.600
Rage of profanity.

1818
01:45:11.239 --> 01:45:14.319
And this is the example that we're you know, passing

1819
01:45:14.359 --> 01:45:17.840
on to the next generation. And this lack of civility,

1820
01:45:18.439 --> 01:45:23.560
you know, people getting attacked on streets today, the and

1821
01:45:23.760 --> 01:45:29.119
lack of law enforcement, and you know, just traditional rules

1822
01:45:29.159 --> 01:45:30.319
that you and I grew up with.

1823
01:45:30.920 --> 01:45:31.800
Yeah, profanity.

1824
01:45:31.840 --> 01:45:33.760
I'm glad you brought that up because we see it

1825
01:45:33.960 --> 01:45:36.520
and hear it, and you know, it's on bumper stickers. Right,

1826
01:45:36.520 --> 01:45:38.920
it's on t shirts and then of course it's on

1827
01:45:39.000 --> 01:45:41.520
our TVs. I mean it used to be that there

1828
01:45:41.600 --> 01:45:44.000
was you know, you were shielded from that sort of thing.

1829
01:45:44.800 --> 01:45:45.600
But you're right.

1830
01:45:45.680 --> 01:45:49.079
I mean parents sometimes play the game too, and there

1831
01:45:49.119 --> 01:45:52.680
seems to be some For some reason, even some Christians

1832
01:45:53.119 --> 01:45:57.439
don't seem to hold you know, clean language as a

1833
01:45:57.479 --> 01:46:00.439
high priority. They think, well, it's just language. Well no,

1834
01:46:00.760 --> 01:46:03.479
it's reflects our love for the Lord. It reflects our

1835
01:46:03.479 --> 01:46:07.199
respect for one another. And to be we need to

1836
01:46:07.239 --> 01:46:09.680
demand more of our kids, We need to demand more

1837
01:46:09.720 --> 01:46:12.119
of each other, and we need to be brave enough

1838
01:46:12.159 --> 01:46:14.840
to speak up and speak out when we encounter someone,

1839
01:46:15.279 --> 01:46:18.960
you know who frankly just has a bad vocabulary. I mean,

1840
01:46:18.960 --> 01:46:21.239
that's my mom used to say, someone who with bad

1841
01:46:21.319 --> 01:46:24.640
language has a poor vocabulary, which is a generous way

1842
01:46:24.680 --> 01:46:26.840
of putting it. But of course it's more than that,

1843
01:46:26.920 --> 01:46:28.159
but it certainly begins with that.

1844
01:46:28.760 --> 01:46:30.000
Yeah.

1845
01:46:29.079 --> 01:46:33.600
I experienced my drill instructors during my Marine Corps days,

1846
01:46:33.880 --> 01:46:37.079
and their command of the language was very limited because

1847
01:46:38.079 --> 01:46:42.920
they relied heavily on you know, certain expletives. In fact,

1848
01:46:43.760 --> 01:46:45.720
at one time, one of the drill instructors was on

1849
01:46:45.800 --> 01:46:51.039
a roll, and one brave marine recruits stood up and

1850
01:46:51.079 --> 01:46:54.600
applauded him because he managed to use that expletive. I

1851
01:46:54.600 --> 01:46:57.119
think something like fourteen times and two sentences.

1852
01:46:57.920 --> 01:47:00.399
Yeah, I mean, it's become almost a joke. And you know,

1853
01:47:00.479 --> 01:47:03.920
it's become so commonplace that it's how you know, some

1854
01:47:04.000 --> 01:47:07.239
people just I think, honestly, some people don't even realize

1855
01:47:07.279 --> 01:47:10.159
how bad their language is, right because of the type

1856
01:47:10.159 --> 01:47:14.439
of media they consume and the type of material they're consuming.

1857
01:47:15.039 --> 01:47:18.239
And you know, again again, moms and dads have an

1858
01:47:18.239 --> 01:47:23.560
opportunity here to really drill that home. Reverse your drill

1859
01:47:23.600 --> 01:47:26.000
instructor did it a different way, but moms and dads

1860
01:47:26.039 --> 01:47:29.199
around the dinner table. You know, Scripture is very clear

1861
01:47:29.239 --> 01:47:32.439
that our language is to be seasoned. It's supposed to

1862
01:47:32.520 --> 01:47:35.880
be you know, apples of gold and settings of silver.

1863
01:47:36.760 --> 01:47:40.119
That's it's important because it sets the tone. Doctor Dobson

1864
01:47:40.199 --> 01:47:43.279
used to say, the first five minutes of any conversation

1865
01:47:43.399 --> 01:47:45.760
will set the tone whether you walk in the house

1866
01:47:45.800 --> 01:47:48.039
after a rough day or whether the kids come home

1867
01:47:48.039 --> 01:47:52.239
from school. So be careful with those first five minutes especially.

1868
01:47:52.760 --> 01:47:55.399
Well exactly, and here we are, as people of faith

1869
01:47:56.439 --> 01:48:00.199
saying that we believe in Jesus, and we are too

1870
01:48:01.239 --> 01:48:06.119
affect our environment, not be affected by the environment, and

1871
01:48:06.319 --> 01:48:09.199
that is something that you have to constantly be prepared for,

1872
01:48:09.239 --> 01:48:11.479
and even more so these days because as you mentioned,

1873
01:48:12.600 --> 01:48:16.479
you know, social media is so pervasive, our cell phones,

1874
01:48:16.479 --> 01:48:19.800
the kind of language that is transported through our handheld

1875
01:48:19.880 --> 01:48:21.399
devices and that sort of thing.

1876
01:48:22.399 --> 01:48:23.680
And again, you.

1877
01:48:23.560 --> 01:48:27.439
Know, the casualness, especially of leaders of our country, and

1878
01:48:27.520 --> 01:48:30.880
I call them into account all the time on our

1879
01:48:30.920 --> 01:48:32.560
show and saying that's unacceptable.

1880
01:48:32.920 --> 01:48:34.039
You know, it's not.

1881
01:48:35.640 --> 01:48:38.600
To me, it's it should not be indicative of a

1882
01:48:38.720 --> 01:48:42.359
leader who has been elected to represent individuals to speak

1883
01:48:42.479 --> 01:48:42.680
like that.

1884
01:48:43.319 --> 01:48:46.840
Yeah, because you're you're talking about very impressionable people who

1885
01:48:46.920 --> 01:48:49.840
are watching them, who are listening, and you set you know,

1886
01:48:49.920 --> 01:48:52.680
you have your show and your name is on your show.

1887
01:48:52.800 --> 01:48:55.720
You set the tone. It's important to you to maintain

1888
01:48:55.760 --> 01:48:58.439
that decorum. And people know what to expect when they

1889
01:48:59.039 --> 01:49:01.680
tune into Bill Martinas Live. They know that they're going

1890
01:49:01.720 --> 01:49:04.439
to get quality, they're going to get honesty, they're going

1891
01:49:04.520 --> 01:49:07.760
to get integrity and character, and that carries over. I mean,

1892
01:49:07.800 --> 01:49:09.880
people appreciate that, and that's why you have a loyal

1893
01:49:09.920 --> 01:49:11.239
following well.

1894
01:49:11.079 --> 01:49:13.000
And The thing is, you know, as you say, for example,

1895
01:49:14.680 --> 01:49:19.720
you know, because there is this pervasiveness of this rudeness

1896
01:49:19.720 --> 01:49:22.840
that's going on, is that if you are civil, if

1897
01:49:22.880 --> 01:49:27.239
you are courteous, boy, that makes you stand out, doesn't it.

1898
01:49:27.239 --> 01:49:30.640
It really does? And a boy. I mean, we have

1899
01:49:30.680 --> 01:49:33.000
a resort here in town. It's called the broadmar it's

1900
01:49:33.039 --> 01:49:36.560
a five star resort and oh yeah, it's a beautiful place,

1901
01:49:36.760 --> 01:49:40.680
and they have these very high standards of employees. And

1902
01:49:41.319 --> 01:49:43.560
it struck me when I was there recently. We like

1903
01:49:43.600 --> 01:49:45.680
to walk around the lake. It's a free exercise and

1904
01:49:45.760 --> 01:49:48.479
it's a nice place to be. And I thought, you know,

1905
01:49:48.560 --> 01:49:52.359
if everybody treated each other like the broad more employees

1906
01:49:52.680 --> 01:49:57.880
treat guests, this would be a more wonderful place to live, right.

1907
01:49:57.920 --> 01:50:00.000
I mean, I look at each other in the eye.

1908
01:50:00.079 --> 01:50:04.119
I address people by name, say please, say thank you,

1909
01:50:04.199 --> 01:50:08.239
hold doors, you know, ask how can I help? I mean,

1910
01:50:08.279 --> 01:50:10.199
all of the things that we all like when we

1911
01:50:10.239 --> 01:50:13.720
go places where we're treated, well, why don't we treat

1912
01:50:13.760 --> 01:50:15.640
each other that way at home? Why don't we treat

1913
01:50:15.640 --> 01:50:18.439
each other that way at the office? It can be contagious?

1914
01:50:18.800 --> 01:50:21.640
And I think, you know that's what you and I

1915
01:50:21.720 --> 01:50:25.000
thankfully grew up around and yes, exactly, we were influenced

1916
01:50:25.039 --> 01:50:25.319
by that.

1917
01:50:25.439 --> 01:50:28.520
Yeah, and for goodness sakes, how much does that cost?

1918
01:50:29.680 --> 01:50:30.239
Great point?

1919
01:50:30.319 --> 01:50:35.359
I mean, yeah, it's free, and boy, it pays dividends forever,

1920
01:50:35.520 --> 01:50:38.279
because you know, we tell our kids, you're better off

1921
01:50:38.319 --> 01:50:40.600
with good manners than you are with a million dollars.

1922
01:50:41.000 --> 01:50:43.560
Good manners will get you further in life than a

1923
01:50:43.560 --> 01:50:46.479
million dollars will. You'll blow through the dollars quickly, but

1924
01:50:46.520 --> 01:50:49.479
you won't. It won't hurt you to have good manners

1925
01:50:49.479 --> 01:50:50.199
the rest of your.

1926
01:50:50.039 --> 01:50:51.720
Life, exactly.

1927
01:50:51.800 --> 01:50:56.239
And then you know you made reference to the word

1928
01:50:56.239 --> 01:51:00.479
of God that talks about that word aptly spoken. Often

1929
01:51:00.720 --> 01:51:04.840
I hear from people who have received an aptly spoken

1930
01:51:04.920 --> 01:51:08.159
word that's been life changing for them that you don't

1931
01:51:08.159 --> 01:51:11.039
even know. I think there was a story about this

1932
01:51:11.079 --> 01:51:12.800
young man. In fact, he was the valid. He went

1933
01:51:12.840 --> 01:51:15.279
on to become the valedictorian of his class. I think

1934
01:51:15.319 --> 01:51:17.720
in his freshman year he was so abused and bullied

1935
01:51:18.359 --> 01:51:21.880
that he just was depressed.

1936
01:51:21.880 --> 01:51:23.119
He just thought, well, that's it.

1937
01:51:23.199 --> 01:51:26.920
I'm just gonna I'm a loser. Everybody tells me I'm

1938
01:51:26.960 --> 01:51:29.239
a loser. And one day he's walking home he's got

1939
01:51:29.239 --> 01:51:33.239
his books in his hand and bully knocks his books

1940
01:51:33.279 --> 01:51:36.359
out of his hand, and he goes, that's it. You know,

1941
01:51:36.479 --> 01:51:38.760
I'm I'm I'm gonna commit suice. I mean, he was

1942
01:51:38.760 --> 01:51:42.359
so depressed, I give up. I'm gonnammit suicide. Well, this

1943
01:51:42.479 --> 01:51:45.600
other young kid who saw it came over, helped him,

1944
01:51:45.640 --> 01:51:47.960
picked up his books and put him in his hands

1945
01:51:48.000 --> 01:51:51.199
and hold deal and gave him some encouragement. And the

1946
01:51:51.319 --> 01:51:56.119
kid at his valedictorian address referenced that incident that happened

1947
01:51:56.119 --> 01:51:59.600
in his freshman year that it was a turnaround event

1948
01:51:59.680 --> 01:52:02.880
for him him because he went from one he was

1949
01:52:02.920 --> 01:52:04.079
committed to commit to it.

1950
01:52:04.199 --> 01:52:06.279
He had had it. He had been bullied to death.

1951
01:52:06.359 --> 01:52:09.960
Paul, And but for this, you know, when we talk

1952
01:52:10.000 --> 01:52:12.680
about an apolete spoken word, maybe it's not a word.

1953
01:52:12.720 --> 01:52:13.680
Maybe it's just a smile.

1954
01:52:14.119 --> 01:52:19.800
Maybe it's just a hand up, a you know, a

1955
01:52:19.960 --> 01:52:24.079
gesture of affirmation for somebody to say, you know what

1956
01:52:24.159 --> 01:52:24.680
you matter?

1957
01:52:25.560 --> 01:52:29.279
Right, that's a timely illustration, Bill, because here we are

1958
01:52:29.399 --> 01:52:32.960
in August and September. Schools are going back and boys

1959
01:52:33.000 --> 01:52:37.000
schools are tough environments for kids. Kids can be so cruel.

1960
01:52:37.439 --> 01:52:40.600
There's all kinds of reasons behind it. There's there's bullying

1961
01:52:40.640 --> 01:52:44.279
at home right, there's broken homes, and there's disappointment, and

1962
01:52:44.319 --> 01:52:48.159
there's frustration and anger. But our kids are stepping into very,

1963
01:52:48.239 --> 01:52:51.640
very vulnerable places. And if you have children, and if

1964
01:52:51.640 --> 01:52:54.520
you're even a child or a teenager listening, you can

1965
01:52:54.560 --> 01:52:57.359
be that change agent. You can be that encourager. Who

1966
01:52:57.439 --> 01:53:00.239
is that person who can save a life in the

1967
01:53:00.239 --> 01:53:03.119
long run, as you're describing it, and what a lovely

1968
01:53:03.199 --> 01:53:06.920
story of what one person, how one person can affect

1969
01:53:07.000 --> 01:53:09.119
someone else, and then those people affect all kinds of

1970
01:53:09.199 --> 01:53:12.760
other people. But boy, bullying is an epidem is an epidemic,

1971
01:53:13.279 --> 01:53:16.079
and I'm glad you mentioned it, and we need to

1972
01:53:16.119 --> 01:53:18.359
get on top of that. There should be zero tolerance

1973
01:53:18.399 --> 01:53:21.159
for that exactly, and speak up when you see it.

1974
01:53:21.600 --> 01:53:23.720
But you make a great point here, Paul, and that

1975
01:53:23.840 --> 01:53:28.439
is that we do, we do have the ability to

1976
01:53:28.479 --> 01:53:29.560
be that change agent.

1977
01:53:30.319 --> 01:53:33.760
Okay, to lead with you know, common courtesy.

1978
01:53:35.279 --> 01:53:37.560
Although I can understand why some people say it's not

1979
01:53:37.680 --> 01:53:39.279
quite as common as it used to be when you

1980
01:53:39.319 --> 01:53:41.840
and I were growing up, But that's okay, but it'll

1981
01:53:41.880 --> 01:53:44.800
stand out and you could make a big difference. And

1982
01:53:44.920 --> 01:53:48.399
what happens is when you are being courteous towards others.

1983
01:53:49.319 --> 01:53:52.359
It just seems the discourteousness of others kind of just

1984
01:53:53.119 --> 01:53:55.279
slides off your back a little bit like a duck,

1985
01:53:55.399 --> 01:53:56.239
doesn't it.

1986
01:53:56.239 --> 01:53:57.439
It does. Yeah, I know.

1987
01:53:57.560 --> 01:54:02.239
Courtesy is contagious. And it's also so you know, less

1988
01:54:02.319 --> 01:54:07.159
tolerant when you know, if if goodness, goodness can overcome evilness,

1989
01:54:07.199 --> 01:54:08.680
I mean pretty quickly.

1990
01:54:09.359 --> 01:54:11.039
And uh yeah, it's it is.

1991
01:54:11.079 --> 01:54:14.119
It's just it's it's all about creating an environment, a

1992
01:54:14.159 --> 01:54:17.359
pleasant environment, and people tend to live up to their

1993
01:54:17.399 --> 01:54:20.279
best expectations that you put on them and when we

1994
01:54:20.359 --> 01:54:23.039
need to expect these things of kids, and teachers can

1995
01:54:23.079 --> 01:54:23.439
do that.

1996
01:54:23.720 --> 01:54:24.800
Parents can do that as.

1997
01:54:24.720 --> 01:54:26.840
